Kite-Flying Etiquette 101

• Always keep track of your kite in the sky, and don't fly too close to your neighbors.
• If your little one has the spool, make sure they're watching where they're running. The Mall will be awash with kids and their kites that day!
• Run away from crowds to bring your kite down. Don't risk hitting another spectator, and try to control the descent.
