My hometown had a lot of wind, which was convenient for kites. On one occasion our kite landed in the cemetery!
Did you know that a water skier can carry a kite behind so that he gets lifted into the air? That would be a cool experience!
In the movie Mary Poppins, the finale has them flying kites and the song goes, "Let's go fly a kite!" That movie had some brilliant songs.
You know that experiment where Benjamin Franklin flew a kite with a metal wire to see that lightning is electric? If it sounds dangerous, that's because it was: a couple of other people who tried to do it got killed!
I think there's a bird called a kite too.
