When is the last time you flew a kite?

My five year old son got a kite for his birthday six months ago, and we'd planned a day when we were goin to go and have a picnic and fly it. However, it was raining on that particular day, and we just seemed to forget about it after that. Might have to get it out for the school holidays next month.

I think it was probably last spring when we bought kites for all of the grandchildren and flew them on several windy days. It is so much fun to get them out and do things like we did when we were kids. We've also taught them how to jump rope and how to play jacks!

I have not flown a kite in a very long time. You are right I need to do that again. My nephew is coming out in August we may do that if we have a windy day.

wow its been years for me goodness you brought back some memories lol. i use to have one that looked like a butterfly and i remeber competing with my older brother to see who would get it up in the air flying first lol. you dont see much people now and days flying kites, well i know i havent seen some in a while.. i used to have a good time flying my little butterfly kite..

You have made me think of my childhood days. My brother and me used to make a kite and fly it . It was sooooo long ago. I would like to make a kite for my son to fly. Hope i get to do it soon.

I love flying a kite, but it's been a few years since I've done it. We have several really nice ones at home, so I must talk my son into coming and having a go with me as soon as the weather's suitable.

Ohh....it was a decade ago gitfiddleplayer..LOL! I wish I will have the chance to do it again but I do know when..LOL! I love watching kids now enjoying while flying their kites!

I guess it was in the month of January earlier this year, when I last flew a kite. I really enjoy flying kites since the time I was a kid. At my hometown I would spend hours standing on the roof flying my kite and watching it reach heights. However, after coming into a job, I don't get enough time, or I must say, I am not present at my hometown during the kite flying season so that makes it difficult for me to enjoy this leisure activity. However, wenever I come across any such occasion, I love doing this activity.

It has only been a few weeks since the last time I flew a kite. My kids both have one, but my daughter is too young still to really fly hers, so I was flying it while she watched.

i guess it's been more than five years since i last had fun with kites.. before, i used to play and fly kites with my younger siblings and my cousins.. we would ran all afternoon to fly kite.. we do it almost every day during summer time.. but now that we all have grown up, we dont do it.. we are already matured that we see flying kite an act jsut for children..

The last time I flew a kite was 1 or 2 months ago. At the end of the school year, I remember. My little brother kept getting tangled in it, but I still think he was pretty adorable running around with the kite. Of course, I had to fly the kite also. Who could resist "My Little Pony" and "Spiderman" kites?

It's been years... I remember the last time I flew a kite was back when I was in the 1st year of high school. There was a kite flying competition in school and we represented our class. It was fun even though we didn't actually win in that event. When I was younger than that we usually fly kites here in our place. It was a hobby during a windy season. I guess I should try and fly one again sometime. This discussion made me miss it. Hehe. Thank you!

Yeah what a feeling. We bought a kite for our 5 yr old a while back and have spent a few Sunday afternoons in the park flying it. It's fun and we always come home happy and weatherbeaten. Everyone should own at least one kite!

This is so wierd, I have been talking to my children about flying a kite. They didn't get the fun in it. I guess because it doesn't make noises or light up that it is not fun. I remember that I would fly my kite for hours and it was so nice and peaceful.

I haven't flew a kite since childhood. Maybe when the weather gets cooler I might want to see if my 5 year old niece wants to fly one. I bet my 2 year old nephew would enjoy seeing a kite fly.

Oh that was years ago when I was a kid. I was visiting Washington D.C. and was up on the hill around the Washington Monument. I flew a kite with this lady who I was just having a conversation with. She had it really up there. It was so high it was flying over the road.

I haven't flown a kite for ages. I guess I'm put off rather by not being very good at it. I spent a couple of happy hours watching my son enjoying himself with a kite and his Dad on the beach last summer though. His Dad thought he was going to get a quiet relaxing sun bathe. Little did he know that the kite had been packed ....!

Funny you ask that question because I haven't flown a kite in years, but you have brought back memories, Oh yes you have.... When i was a child my mom used to help me make kites on a weekend it used to be so much fun. Well tomorrow is a holiday in my country and i think I'll make some kites with my nieces and fly them outside tomorrow thanks for the idea.

The last time I flew kite for my own delight was when I was still a kid but you know what? I was not very successful because before my kite could reach the ideal height the wind blew my kite down and it was destroyed. That drove me to tears because it took me a whole day doing my kite only to be torn apart in a matter of minutes. Hu!Hu!Hu!

more years than i can remember. but there's a man in a wheel chair that flys these beautiful kites. that we loved watching whenever he did. he said he was limited in what he could do then he tried kite flying and found that he not only could do it but really enjoyed it.
