Paper Bagsbr> Make a simple bag kite for your children to play with by folding over the top of a paper bag to keep it open. Glue on pieces of party streamers under the fold. Reinforce the kite by gluing in some strips of balsa wood or a few thin twigs along the length of the bag. Poke a couple of holes above the opened end, and attach two pieces of string or yarn (put a piece of masking or transparent tape over the holes to prevent them from tearing) and tie the ends onto a roll of kite string. It should take off when the kids start running.

Plastic Wrap Flying kites with the kids is a lot of fun, but it can also be frustrating when the kite gets torn by a tree branch or fence. For a temporary fix that will keep the kite airborne for a while, cover the tear with plastic wrap and affix it to the kite with transparent tape.
