Where can i get the glass coated string used to fly kites in Asian countries?

Is there anyone in the Canadian forces who can take kites to Afghanistan? My school is collecting donations to buy kites and send them to children in Afghanistan. The only problem is we cannot send them on the planes with the forces unless they are addressed to a soldier who is at a base. We would need the soldier to take the kites from there and distribute them to children. Is there anyone who knows someone in the canadian forces or would have connections that can help us get these kites there?

Save the environment by folding toilet paper kites!! what do you think? I found a new way of folding toilet paper that should save on how much you use. I call it square, triangle, kite. First, get the toilet paper into a square by folding. Then fold across diagonally to get the triangle, then take one of the longer points of the triangle and bend it to the center to get a kite. Now its ready to use! Remember to use the front side of the "kite" that is smooth and doesnt have the final fold-in. The final fold-in acts as a support frame for sheets above it during wiping. All the pressure should concentrate there, where it is thickest. The top of the kite is widest to protect against brownees. The bottom of the "kite" has the least area to save on paper yet provides a thumb platform to hold in place. Reduce your toilet paper by trial and error!
