Back when my children were really young, my husband and I took them kite flying for the first time. We chose a clear, sunny spring day with lots of wind. Driving to a nearby park with a huge field and no power lines, my husband got the kite off the ground and unwound the kite string. As soon as the kite was securely flying in the heavens, each of the children wanted to take turns tugging on the kite. They loved it!
