Warning to family boaters:Study finds kids who boat are healthier physically and psychologically than non-boating kids. Livonia, MI A new survey, commissioned by the National Marine Manufactures Association, and conducted by the Impulse Research Corporation, found that kids who boat are healthier physically and psychologically than their non-boating counterparts. The on-line survey was conducted with a random sample of 1004 parents, half of whom have children who boat regularly, and half that did not. Families who boat reported their children to be healthier than those who dont (71% of boaters said their childrens health was excellent , as opposed to 61% of non-boaters.) While it might seem obvious that boating can promote physical fitness, boating can also help children psychologically. Children who boat learn to be more outgoing and less shy or introverted. They are better team players (63% compared to 53%) and tend to be more optimistic (52% to 43%) and self confident. Boaters children (75% to 65%) tended to be the leader more often than their peers are. The survey also discovered that children involved in boating spend more quality time with parents year-round, even in the colder months. |
