I love to move around, But usually not on the ground. I'm quite strung out when way up high. I like to sail, but I need to stay dry. I need air, but not to breathe. A helpful hand is all I need. What am I?
Common Wrong Answers
“A balloon”
While a balloon also moves around in the air and needs to stay dry, it does not have the same 'strung out' aspect as a kite, and it typically relies on helium rather than wind for movement.
“An airplane”
An airplane does move in the air and requires air for lift, but it operates on the ground (runway) and is not typically described as 'strung out' like a kite.
“A bird”
A bird moves around in the air and needs air to fly, but it does not require a 'helpful hand' to stay aloft, which is a key aspect of the riddle.
