Starboard & World Sailing are excited to announce the January 2023 official launch of: WindsurfKids – a workbook for kids written by Linzi Hawkin & Lizzy Howard, with beautiful and fun illustrations by Sarah Steenland.
WindsurfKids is a fun and friendly introduction to windsurfing, water safety and environmental education. Filled with inspiring stories, interactive challenges and opportunities to get outside, this workbook is designed to inspire kids while supporting their parents, instructors and educators.
Kids are guided through the following six lessons by Tiki and a dream team of professional windsurfers & eco-activists.
Why WindsurfKids?
We know that when kids fall in love with an outdoor sport like windsurfing, they fall in love with the outdoors. And kids who love their planet become the best ambassadors for taking care of it.
WindsurfKids was born following the success of SUPKids, founded by Linzi Hawkin in 2014. Both programs share the same aim: engaging kids in watersports and making vital water safety & environmental education accessible to everyone. When given the right support, young people have the power to change the world they live in for the better. Sometimes all it takes is a little inspiration to help them discover their inner activist, whether that comes from a teacher, a book or an experience in nature.
