"Come on!" Bear waved to Mole, "Kite day is here!"
Present your child with the book "Kite Day" and have them take a look at the front cover. Then ask
"What kind of day is a 'kite day'?" "Do Bear and Mole look excited to fly their kite?" "Who would you ask to help you make a kite?"
For this precarious activity, you will need to visit pinkstripeysocks.com. There, you will find all supplies, instructions and photo's you need (all items can be found around the home) to make your own kites. I take NO credit for this idea, except that I found it on Pinterest. It was so cute and simple…I had to give it a test run!
Go outside and engage your child and yourself in the fascination of kite flying! Spend some time with this one….it's good to breathe the clean, fresh, spring air! This activity could include a visit to the park with a friend or as a play date.
After the kite flying frenzy, sit down on the grass with your child, a cold drink and the book Kite Day. Start a simple discussion about the story of Bear and Mole and the hurdles they faced when flying their kite. You might start the discussion by asking "What items did Bear and Mole use to make their kite?" and "Where did Bear and Mole find their kite after the dark, heavy clouds carried it away?" and "Who did the fallen kite help?"
Keep it simple and enjoy!
Peace!
