We have had a couple of windy days this week, perfect for flying a kite. The weather has been fabulous for time of the year too. It’s the beginning of February and we’ve already taken two trips to the park because it already feels like spring. It’s been heavenly! Our windy days inspired me to come up with this fun Cupcake Liner Kite Craft. A perfect craft for a lovely spring day.
