Two tin cans and a length of string, hours of endless fun.

Re: It Happens

The one toy you see very little these days and which is fun for adults and toddlers alike is a kite.

When my kids were young we always had kites and now my 3 year old grandson has discovered how much fun they are. Yet you never see them in local parks.

I bet Health & Safety have a lot to answer for with kites and public parks

Re: It Happens

Could be right there, our local park used to be full of kites years ago but they put a pylon either end and now have electric wires above the park so they are banned. We take one to the beach when we go with the kids, lost a couple that may have made it to France over the years ! (kites that is not kids).

Re: It Happens

I don't have any grandchildren, but spent a weekend in Liverpool with my partner's family and they have a 5 year old son. I loved every bit of it. took me back to when my boys were wee. We played in the park with a frisbee type toy and we all had great fun
