go fly a kite

One of summer’s simplest pleasures and activities is flying kites! A good breeze and an open area is all you need. Kids get to enjoy the outdoors, run, play and figure out how to maneuver the kite & work with wind while parents get to spend fun quality family time their little ones. Grab a homemade or simple kite and up, up and away for some flying fun!
