What are the best floating devices to use while going down small river rapids? For kids, Teens, or adults?
Q. I live in a small town, in Georgia, where a river flows through a residential neighborhood. At the beginning of the river, it has a couple tiny rapids where all walks of life can play and drench themselves under waterfalls. You can also float down the waterfalls and rapids so I was wondering what kind of floating devices would you have the most fun floating down the river rapids?

A. Perhaps inner tubes. But, past the small rapids, I would recommend kayaks! They're tons of fun.

A. Many parents, believed that it would be healthy. And they had to eat it all because it might have been like a sign of respect/appreciation. And back then parents were more strict so they had too, and for it to prevent them from being too picky, by trying more food
