With a bit of skill, tissue paper and the right wind behind you, you could soon be flying.
There's nothing like a bit of kite flying to let off steam but if you find yourself with a bored child, stuck inside because it's raining and windy then actually making the kite too might be just the activity for you.
Here's what you need:
- Tissue paper
- Crafting or florists wire
- String
- Scissors and glue
- Sticks (must be straight) or thin plant supports.

I love this. It is absolutely brilliant and definitely something we could make (considering we're not very crafty!). Also love you nails again. I notice they are greeny blue this time :) Keep up the good work Debs.

What a great idea, and simple too. We will be giving it a go on the next windy day. Thanks, Deb

Oh thank you for your lovely comments - always feel a bit....vulnerable doing these videos!
And yes Rosie, my nails are a greeny blue. Thought I'd better go lighter as it's spring! Hahaha! How shallow am I?!
