The Kids Slackline Kit Encourages Children to Train with One Another
Michael Hemsworth — April 8, 2016 — Life-Stages
When it comes to slacklining, it requires keen attention and balance, so the Slackline Kit for kids is designed to allow kids to train together to get it right.
While traditional slackline accessories are intended for adults, this kit focuses on getting children ready to try a regular line when they're ready. Designed to encourage kids to work together and help each other get the hang of it, the kit teaches balancing skills and strength, but also trust with one another.
Made by HearthSong, the Slackline Kit for kids comes complete with two ropes that attach easily to trees and a travel bag for the accessories. Kids are encouraged to build trust and relationships with fellow kids or parents and learn the ropes (literally) at their own pace.
