  I tortured my office workers with that Levi’s song a few months ago!

  Husband Jace is certain this was filmed at Chatsworth Park in the San Fernando Valley; he grew up nearby.

  I sooooo remember this – the goofy song and stop-motion filming!!! In my memory the kid was a lot older, but then what was I…4? Thank you.

  Hi Sr Jacopa Clare: Glad you liked it! The song really brings back sweet memories. And thanks for visiting!

  wondering if anyone has had any luck finding the commercial of those flying kids in their Levi’s. I keep thinking that there was animation involved with the live action. Thanks for this classic

  Hi Bubbie: I check YouTube occasionally to see if someone’s finally posted it. I don’t remember much of it other than I wanted to fly too! Thanks for commenting!

  I’ve been wanting/trying to find that Levi commercial of the animation/live action with the flying kids too! No luck so far… but, I don’t give up easily! It will be found! Good luck to all!

  Hi Stazeeee:

  Thanks for stopping by! I actually thought about writing the Public Relations folks at Levi’s, but then, they’d think I have no life whatsoever. lol

  I LOVED that commercial.

  I remember one where the kid is sitting on the sidewalk like he was in a go-kart. He was moving down the sidewalk like he was steering a car. Anyone else remember that one?

  Hi Irishlass:

  I don’t remember that one, but I sure wish Levi’s would use Youtube to bring back all those commercials. That’s it, I’m writing them! Updates to be posted here.
  Thanks for visiting!

  I sent Levi’s a message last night looking for the flying kids commercial anywhere. If anyone finds it, please post back here.

  Embee: Thanks!! There’s just something about that Flying Kids commercial. We all wanna see it again! Why, oh why, is it sooo hard to find anywhere?

  Whew! It’s not just me. I have been looking for the flying kids commercial for years. I think it had to have been spring/summer 1977, based on some associations with events in my life at the time.

  Hi Greco1, I know right?! It’s like the holy grail – no one can get their hands on it.

  Maybe it’s better that way. What if we actually see the commercial again and it’s not as entertaining as we remember it? Nahhh, that’s crazy talk!
