Tuesday: Design Your Own Kite!

Have you ever wanted to design and fly your own kite? Now's your chance. This time of the year is great for kite flying, especially on a day when there is a slight breeze. This project requires some time but the end result is worth it. 

Gather these supplies:

• ¼ inch round wooden dowel
• Twine or string
• Lightweight paper (easel paper, tissue paper, or newspaper will work)
• Glue stick or regular glue
• Ribbon
• Art supplies to decorate your kite (craft paint and brushes, markers, crayons, or stickers)
• Scissors
• Toilet paper tube

We've put together step-by-step instructions here on how to put together your kite. The design is up to you! We can't wait to see your creations.

Stay tuned tomorrow for instructions on how to get that kite flying high in the sky!
