Build It, Then Fly It

Children are guided through building a real kite from the frame up, then take it outside and fly what they made. The session combines craft with a practical lesson in wind, balance and simple aerodynamics, and every child goes home with their own kite.

Workshops run for ages five and up and are adapted to the group. Younger children get pre-cut components and more hands-on help; older children do more of the construction and tuning themselves.

From small camp groups to very large sessions. FLY360 holds a Limca Book of Records title for the largest kite-making workshop, teaching 1,017 participants simultaneously, so scale is rarely the limiting factor.

Yes. FLY360 brings the kite materials, spars, line and tools, and the instructors. You provide the space and the group; each child keeps the kite they build.

The building session works indoors or under shade, which is useful in summer heat. The flying session needs open outdoor space with clear sky, so the two are usually split across the session.

A typical session runs about 2 to 3 hours including building, tuning and an open flying session. The timing can be shortened or extended to fit your camp schedule.

Both. The workshop is structured so children learn why a kite flies: how wind, lift, balance and tail weight interact. It maps naturally onto school science topics while still feeling like play.
