For a young kid, almost any kneeboard will work. Even that blow molded yellow Hydroslide in your grandfathers garage, bought from Costco, in 1984.
If they are very young, do not strap them in. Very young children can fall upside down, and if the strap is holding them tightly, it can be difficult for them to get right side up.
When they start to progress, if they are going backwards, and lean too close to the boat. the tail of the knee board can dip into the water, and then an immediate back somersault. and then the tip of the board is going in the direction of their face.
Something young kids can do fairly easily is to stand up on the knee board. This will rapidly improve their sense of balance.
