First Canoe Paddle

We took Kyle and Paul out on Rock Lake last weekend to give it a try with two adults and two kids in a canoe.  We are hoping to paddle in to a campsite at Glendalough State Park later this summer or early fall.  We bought Paul his own paddle and he seemed to have fun trying to figure out how to use it (or to splash us with it) and we gave Kyle a big stick so he could "paddle" too.
