I am planning to take my children tubing on our local river this summer and I am so glad that I found this article because these tips are very helpful! You make a great point that you should have your kids wear aqua socks so that they will not have to worry about sore feet or hurting their feet on seaweed or rocks. Also, I will make sure to bring a lot of drinks because this will give me peace of mind that my children will be hydrated even on a hot day.

In reply to Emily @ My Love for Words. Yes! It's beautiful! And I grew up in Wisconsin where the rivers are a yucky murky brown, so definitely not rivers I swam in ever, or the lake they flowed into (other than to do things like tubing or jet skiing).

A crystal clear river? I’ve never heard of such a thing! The river’s here in Ohio are nothing I”d want to swim in so I’m totally jealous. 🙂 Puddle jumpers are the best, aren’t they! We have three now, and they hold the kids so well when they’re in the water. So much better than those inflatable arm floaties. Looks like you had a great time. I hope you have a great week!

These are awesome tips! Especially the water shoes! I never would have thought of that, but it’s a genius idea!
