Let's go fly a kite...

First the back story. We have a lovely kite. One that brother Matt gave us years ago with dual strings and fancy flying bits. But, it's a bit tricky for a 3 year old to manage and after a rather disastrous kite flying outing with La that involved fiddly flying conditions, a runaway child and pant-wetting one to boot - Sami decided to revisit his childhood and construct a 3 year old friendly kite like the ones he used to fly as a boy.

Over the last week we've had some windy weather, perfect for flying kites so we went out on a couple of occasions to a couple of locations to test run Sami's kite.
Perfect for La to hold on to and control...
...she got right into it!

The tail had to be loooooonnnng and colourful. A lot of plastic bags were sacrificed for the cause.
A few running repairs after a few hard landings.
After a while La took to the hills for a run and a song. Love the kite Baba!
