Face Painting at WindscapeChildren's Activities

The children's tent features activities to appeal to kids of all ages, from hilarious bol races to a treasure-filled sand pile. Windscape offers a variety of free activities to encourage all kids to join in the fun. At the information booth, families can pick up a Windscape Program which will provide details about wind specs, kiting safety tips, a schedule, and a map of the grounds. There will also be Passports available for children to collect the autographs of celebrity flyers and be entered to win a kite! Kids will also receive a free Canadian flag, pin, and sticker.

Temporary TattoosFree activities for children include:

Candy Drop - Kids flock to the middle of the field to collect candy that will be released from a kite high up in the air. This activity depends on the participation of the wind, so it does not occur at any particular time.

Stunt Kite Flying Lessons - For those who have a stunt kite and aren't quite sure how to fly it, lessons will be given on-site. The lessons are not only available to kids - adults who would like to try their hand at stunt-kiting are also welcome. Stunt kites are available for purchase at Windscape, as well.
