    Make a kite

 

[1] Kites were more than toys. They were very important

tools in ancient China. Kites were used in

construction. Materials were lifted with a kite. Kites

were used in battles as well. Messages attached to

[5] kites were flown over enemy lines until they reached

their aliens, and then the lines were cut, and the kites

and the messages fell to the soldiers below. Kites with

hooks and bait were used for fishing. Kites were even

fitted with whistles to make musical sounds while

[10] flying.

Listed below are simple directions for making a kite.

While a kite made in this way may fly, it will not be very

durable. The purpose is to make a very colorful kite

that might be similar to one made by the ancient

[15] Chinese. Directions for more durable and more

sophisticated kites can be found in craft books.

 

Materials:

· Large sheet of construction paper

· String

[20] · Paint

· Tissue or crepe paper

 

Directions:

Fold the construction paper in half; Cut out the shape

of your kite. You might choose the shape of a butterfly,

[25] bird, or dragon; Color your kite with watercolors or

finger paint; When dry, tie the string to one end and

attach tissue paper scraps to make a tail.
