Let's Go Fly A Kite

My sister and her family lives in an area that was effected by the tornadoes last week (they are all fine) so rather than sitting at home with no power, they came down to visit for the week. My boys love when they get to visit with their cousins. Here they are attempting to fly the kites my sister bought. They did get them up but for only a little bit at a time. There wasn't a steady enough breeze. Regardless, they had fun trying. Here are the lyrics to the kite song from Mary Poppins to narrate.

Let's Go Fly A Kite

With tuppence for paper and strings,
you can have your own set of wings.
With your feet on the ground,
you're a bird in flight!
With your fist holding tight,
to the string of your kite!



Let's go fly a kite
Up to the highest height
Let's go fly a kite
And send it soaring
Up through the atmosphere
Up where the air is clear
Oh, let's go fly a kite!



When you send it flying up there,
all at once your lighter than air!
You can dance on the breeze,
over 'ouses and trees!
With your fist 'olding tight,
to the string your kite!



Let's go fly a kite
Up to the highest height
Let's go fly a kite
And send it soaring
Up through the atmosphere
Up where the air is clear
Oh, let's go fly a kite!
