First bought for my nephew 5 years, I also took one for my 4 year old son. There is no rigid nylon frame, allowing to carry it in his little pouch around (also very handy for storing it). The frames are replaced with nylon seams and flaps allowing the kite to properly maintain its flight structure. It easily flies away and with only one controller, it is easier to handle for children (while waiting to move to 2 manoeuvrable joysticks). I was surprised by the length of the tail of the kite, my son was fascinated during his first flight! Very colorful, my son was immediately loved. He expect only one thing: more wind!
