Purpose of this Blog...

You may have noticed that not all books are equal in capturing children's imaginations and in cultivating those innocent, tender souls. My goal is to help you find the ones that do!

LET'S GO FLY A KITE!

source

Did you know that April is "National Kite Month"? Our kids loved it when we'd all go as a family and fly kites on Saturdays at the big school playground down the street from our house, or at the beach.  There's something really relaxing and yet, at the same time challenging, about kite flying!


I thought I'd share some fun children's books about kites with you, but first - here are some unique kites  from Cost Plus WORLD MARKET...
