The Wonder Woman Family competes in a contest in which they must have an adventure with a kite. Wonder Tot and Mr. Genie encounter a flying dinosaur in their adventure; Wonder Girl uses a sailfish for her kite; Hippolyta stops an alien invasion; and Wonder Woman is unable to find a suitable adventure.
When they return to Paradise Island to relate their adventures. The unique kite which serves as the prize is blown away by the wind. The girls chase it and encounter Multiple Man. Wonder Woman uses the kite to defeat the Nuclear Menace, so she wins the contest.
