The Art of Making and Flying Kites
Hi, I'm Lena and I love kites. Making and flying kites is my hobby. It's both fun and creative. I want to share my experience with you.
I started making kites as a child. My first kite was simple but it flew really well. Making kites is not too hard. You need some materials like paper, sticks, string, and glue. When I make a kite, I first design it on paper. Then, I cut out the shape and decorate it. I like using bright colours and patterns. It's fun to see my ideas come to life.
After making the kite, the next step is flying it. I go to a park where there's lots of space. The best time to fly kites is when the wind is just right, not too strong or too weak. Holding the kite's string, I run a little to lift it into the air. It's exciting to see the kite rise up and dance in the sky. I feel happy when my kite flies high.
Flying kites is a great way to relax. It also helps me to meet other people who like kites. We share tips and enjoy flying our kites together.
Kite flying is more than a hobby for me. It's a way to express my creativity. Each kite I make is special. It's like making art that can fly.
I think everyone should try making and flying a kite. It's a simple joy that brings happiness. For me, there's nothing like watching my kite soar in the sky.
