Let's go (verb) vs Let's go to (verb)

I have these sentences:

Let's go fly a kite.
Let's go to fly a kite.

Let's go make a snowman.
Let's go to make a snowman.

Can I use both forms (with to and without to)? Is there any difference between them. Thanks.

The use of to here doesn't sound at all natural to me. Probably confused by I'm going to (do something. Just one of those things, I guess.

Thanks for the answer. So in general after: 'Let's go there should be always verb without to? If I have this sentence: Let's go home to watch TV. To is unnatural here too?

No, it's correct here. It indicates purpose or reason.
By the way, please don't post the same question twice. It confuses us older guys.

Say 'hi' to Prague for me. It's one of my favorite cities. I was just there for a second visit last month.
