Airborne plaything for Italian in Kildare (4)
I believe the answer is:
kite
'airborne plaything' is the definition.
'kite' can be an answer for 'plaything' (kite is a kind of plaything). I'm not certain of the 'airborne' bit.
'italian in kildare' is the wordplay.
'italian' becomes 'it' (common abbreviation).
'in' is an insertion indicator.
'kildare' becomes 'ke' (I am not sure about this - if you are sure you should believe this answer much more).
'it' inserted into 'ke' is 'KITE'.
'for' is the link.
Can you help me to learn more?
(Other definitions for kite that I've seen before include "Toy flown at the end of a string" , "Flying toy on a string" , "Raptor - flying toy" , "Child's toy; bird of prey" , "Flying toy or kind of hawk" .)
