Bibo and the Kite — A Don't Give Up Story | Shalvit Kids TV Storybook No. 51

**The wind is dancing — and Bibo wants a kite of his very own!** 🪁💨

Bibo sees the kites twirling over the big field and his feet start pattering: *"I want to fly a kite too!"* So Daddy smiles his big warm smile: **"Then we shall BUILD one!"** Together they hunt for treasures in the garden shed, tie two sticks into a cross, stretch the brightest red paper, wind the string, and tie bow after bow onto a long dancing tail. Then it's off to the field… RUN! Lift! **FLOP.** Run again! **FLOP.** Bibo's arms droop — until clever Lulu spots the answer (*a LONGER tail!*), Kiki cheers the loudest cheer, Daddy shares one last secret, and Bibo whispers the words every little achiever needs: **"Up, up, up — don't give up!"** 🪁

This is the perseverance story parents reach for when their little one wants to quit — because its lesson flies home with every child: *"Keep trying, ask for help — practice makes it fly!"* 💛

🪁 **What's inside:**

- A complete build-and-fly adventure in short, simple sentences — perfect for ages 2–6 and reading aloud

- A real **kite-building journey** children can follow: sticks, cross frame, red paper, string winder, tail and ribbon bows

- The **counting spine of the book**: the first tail has **5 bows**, the longer tail adds **3 more** — and the big Count the Bows page draws exactly **8 numbered bows** so your child can count every single one (5 + 3 = 8 early maths, woven into the story!)

- Two gentle, funny **flop scenes** — nobody hurt, kite unharmed — and the friends-and-family teamwork that turns flops into flight

- The **Up, Up, Up refrain** on three big chant-along pages, plus **The Kite Song** to sing together

- A **Count the Kites** page with exactly **10 numbered kites**, a **Build a Kite sequencing activity**, a **Windy or Calm? sorting game with answer key**, **Match the Kite Parts**, **What Comes Next? patterns**, a **feelings matching page**, **trace-the-words**, a seek-and-find, two colouring pages and a **Design Your Own Kite** page

- A **My Keep-Trying Chart** and a printable **Kite Flyer Certificate** with a name line

- A two-page **For Parents & Grown-Ups** guide: raising a child who keeps trying, kite safety (open spaces, weather, string sense), and **full answer keys** for every activity

🎓 **What your child will learn:**

- 🪁 Perseverance — flops are information, not failure; trying again is how things fly

- 🔢 Counting to 8 and 10, and early addition (5 bows + 3 more = 8)
