Fly a Kite for Mental Health is an event in Winnipeg, Manitoba at Kildonan Park May 7th, 2016 from 12:30 to 4:30. This is to build awareness for youth mental health and suicide awareness. We will be holding a kite auction, with unique design kites, to raise funds for youth mental health initiatives.

All funds raised go to the Partnership for Mental Health national movement, the Right by You campaign. We welcome people, families and kite lovers alike to come and enjoy the day!

Come fly a kite in for mental health. Be this is memory for someone, to honor someone, to celebrate or just to have fun. We welcome all to this fantastic day!

Thank you very much!

starstarstarstarstar 		Kite flying therapy for mentally sick
by: Dr.Devinder pal singh Sehgal

There is no other sport in this world which is better than Kite flying. It is very useful not only for kids, young persons, Senior citizens but also for mentally sick persons. Most of mentally sick persons are kept in indoors for most the time.

Kite flying therapy can be used for curing such persons. Of course it is slow process but can definitely work. Nature is the best healing factor along with the Wind, The Sun, The Earth, Sea, Mountains, Trees etc., can act as medicine for curing sick persons.

Sick persons would definitely feel better and cheerful by flying kite under the Sky. We all must Use Kite flying Therapy for Happy, Cheerful and long long stress free life.

As mentioned earlier, there's another alternative to towing indoor kites if it's just not possible to fly outdoors...

"Kites Up!" is my downloadable board game. It's a PDF file which has all the documentation for the game plus images for all the components. Tokens, cards, the board itself and so on. Anyway, just click that link to see more info :-)

It's a printable PDF file. Make a diamond, delta or sled step-by-step. They fly hundreds of feet up for hours on end. Woohoo!
