I took this kite out today (3rd July 11) with just a slight breeze and sometimes no wind. I had to wait for the wind, and then ran along the line which I'd laid out on the grass, and up it went, all the way to the end of the line, what a nice sight!It has a gentle way of flying and stays high up when the breeze picks up. Due to lack of wind, it lost height and then hovered at about 6-10' and I found that if I kept tension on the line, I could pull it towards me and catch it with my hands so that it would land without crashing into the ground. the tail helps a lot to keep it at the right angle to catch the wind. Small children might need help organizing the tail prior to launching.

This was a present for my 4 yr old niece, her 1st kite. I didn't recieve the exact same butterfly as shown(different colours) but it made absoloutly no difference what so ever i don't think i could have made a better hit in the present stakes. We went to the park as soon as it was unwrapped and constructed, which was as easy as pie and the hours just flew by, she had so much fun and even though she couldn't quite get the knack of keeping it up for long she thought the whole experience was hilarious and fell in love with the butterfly which was promptly given a name. I had a go for myself and it flies really well, it looks great is sturdy and although i worried she was too young for it it wasn't a problem and it fits nicely in your shoulder bag,

What a wonderful mini kite..All my friends are jealous of this mini beauty which flies like a dream...I purchased the mini kite as I was going on holiday abroad and wanted to introduce my friends to kite flying on the beach. I ordered late (as usual) and retained the order even when I found that delivery was not due until 1st to 5th October. I was disappointed but resigned as I was due to leave early morning on 1st October. I ordered another pocket kite not a butterfly which was due for delivery 29th September. Both kites arrived on the 29th September...well done Brookite...Your butterfly kite will be left in Cyprus as my friends demand so...I'll have to buy another when I get home.

I bought two of these mini kites as a present for two girls, aged 4 and 6 years, to use on a beach holiday. They absolutely loved them. The kites are small of course but very pretty and they fly well. They are easy to assemble and as they are small and light they were just perfect to put in the suitcase. I am not sure about durability, we only used them for a week, but as they are very cheep it did not matter so much to us.

What a fabulous little kite this is. I bought three for my playgroup and the children absolutely loved them. There wasn't an awful lot of wind on the day we used them but what there was enabled the children to fly their kites by running with the kite. Perfect size for preschoolers who found no problem at all in using them with very little adult help. Love, love, love and highly recommend.

My daughter has breast cancer and the McMillan nurse gave her a book to read to her young children aged 4 and 3. In the story the children have a butterfly kite and my grandchildren wanted one too. This was ideal especially for the 3 year old who spends a lot of time running up and down the garden with the kite which is just the right size for her and rises up even with a short string.

The first kite bought for my nearly 4 year old granddaughter crashed and broke in reasonable winds. Against the instructions on the packet her parents flew this one in a strong wind and it flew well and as another reviewer noted the recipient was able to fly it unassisted. I thought the wind speed instructions on the pack were useful. The present was a great success.

This kite is great value for money. We flew it on the beach and the kids (5 and 3) loved it and were able to fly it themselves. It flew very well and is so light it can even be launched single-handedly. Flying in strong gusts was challenging but many kites would struggle under these conditions. Overall a pretty little flier and I would recommend it.

Overall a good value for money kite. It needed a little tweaking to make sure that the rods were in the right place (the rods that go across the wings placed under the middle rod seemed to make it fly better) but then it lifted nicely off the ground and my 5 year old could control it by herself.

Absolutely thrilled with this. Bought for my daughter and was exactly as described and pictured. Flew beautifully straight out of the packet in a very stiff wind. Easy to assemble and stash away again. Perfect for children aged 4/5 to fly and lovely for younger ones to watch as so pretty.

The kite is small but just right for little hands. My 2 year old daughter loves it and she can fly it on her own. It flies very well and looks very beautiful. We have great fun flying it as a family and I have already recommend it to friends with little ones.

Bought this for my daughter and she loves it. It took to the air within seconds of being attached to the string. flies well and brought other kids running over to see if they could have a go (I told them to get lost!). good value and pack up small.

It's a very good design for a kite, I think it's a bit over priced for you get, it seems to fly ok and looks lovely in the sky. I would recommend this sort of kite for children aged 3-9 who want a kite of they're own to practice on flying.

excellent item, my daughter is 6 yrs old and can use this on her own, being smaller and light weight even if there is no wind she can run down the field and it flies, would definitely recommend this product it is excellent value for money.

Great little kite!! Our 4 year old grand-daughter was flying it by herself almost immediately. Not sure about durability etc since she's only had it a couple of weeks, but it's easy to handle and very pretty. She loves it.
