For the slightly older child (i.e. from 5 to 50 plus!) take a look at our collection of Kool Kites and Hot Helicopters. Kite flying is a perfect family activity, where the older family members can pass on their skills and enjoyment to the younger ones. The Trueshopping Spirit of the Air Giant Rainbow Diamond Kite is a traditional kite that is simplicity itself to fly. The classic design and striking colours will encourage everybody to take part. For a slightly different experience, why not try the Spirit of the Air Powerfoil 1.4 Kite? This kite has no frame or complications. You can just take it out of its bag, attach the control lines and it’s ready to go. Easy to control in winds up to 20mph, this model will give hours of enjoyment. More challenge and excitement can be had from the Fantasy Bird and Shockwave Kites, which will swoop and dive, cutting the air in exciting patterns, giving more experienced kite-flyers the chance to practise their skills.

Kite flying a bit tame? Trueshopping’s Salvation Combat Helicopter Twin Pack takes flying model helicopters to a new level. These miniature, light weight, radio-controlled helicopters will test your coordination to the limit. Now you can use your skill in aerial combat and challenge your friends to a duel of supremacy in the air! Each helicopter is armed with a laser; the object of the challenge being to hit your opponent’s helicopter three times to disarm it, before he does the same to yours.
