Description

You're never too young to go camping and canoeing. Certified canoeing instructors Rolf and Debra Kraiker have paddled thousands of miles together. Their sons, Kyle and Brendan, ages 9 and 12, have logged more wilderness miles than most adults three times their ages. In this compilation of practical advice and personal anecdotes, the Kraikers, both certified canoeing instructors, provide expert guidance on such topics as introducing children to the wilderness, preparing formula in the bush, choosing and packing food, selecting the right camping gear and clothing, training young paddlers, ensuring safety in all situations, and campsite activities to keep young campers, from infant to teenager, occupied and entertained.

  • Wonderful resource!
This is a fantastic book with great ideas for taking young children canoeing and camping. Having a new grand daughter, I wanted to get her started on the joys of the outdoors as soon as possible. I couldn't find a lot of helpful information online, but this book is a gold mine. While the pictures and some of the equipment shown is a bit dated, the information is right on. Tips such as giving the child their own little paddle (but tie it to the boat!) are great for creating tiny outdoor enthusiasts. Can't wait for our first trip.....the baby turned 1 this spring! ... show more

  • Worth it just for the checklists
The overall content of the book is decent. The author clearly knows their stuff about camping/canoeing with babies & toddlers. There's lots of books out there on how to car-camp with your kids, this was the best book I found talking about really camping - tents, wilderness, no water, no bathroom type of camping. Makes it a rare gem. The most useful part for us was the checklists in the back. We've gotten waaaay better at not forgetting things because of those lists. ... show more

This book may have been ok in its day, but you can find every bit of information on this topic for free on the internet. Most of it is common sense for anyone who has ever camped.

  • Excellent information, and an easy read
Very good descriptions and ideas of what you can expect from kids of all ages, as well as how to prepar for the outdoors with them, or even a long trip of any type! Great book for parents to read before they try camping with little ones to prepare instead of fear!
