In my youth growing up in the 60’s one of the most common things to say to someone who annoyed you was, ” go fly a kite”. It was made to be a funny thing and was meant for someone as if flying a kite was a waste of time. As a grandparent now we show our granddaughter how to fly the kite and in the teaching, we find a sense of peace and release. All that is needed is a kite, string, and wind. She wonders at how can it stay in the air and fly so high. This simple thing develops into one of those precious moments that will last a lifetime. Whether flying a kite with your young children or just by yourself whether it is in your front yard or at your local park, in a boat on the lake or on top of a roof in the city. Flying a kite is one of the most simple ways to relieve stress and pass time outdoors. Happy kite flying
