A gorgeous, spring-like day evokes the desire to fly kites. Our single kite has yet to be unearthed from rubble in the garage, so we created our own kites, or wind bags, depending who you ask. Simply, tie a piece of yarn around the handles of a plastic bag for one hour of backyard entertainment.

My kids used to do that and loved it immensely. It makes me long for spring (AFTER everything melts and the mud is gone.)

ive done this with little people

What a neat idea! If it was warm out, I might take Isaac out to do that, but we have a lot of snow!
I just wanted to thank you for your CoH submission and for coming to the carnival!
