How to make handmade kites in kindergarten

Materials needed:

1. A piece of cardstock. (In the illustration is the size of standard copy paper stiff cardboard. Harder or regular paper is fine for making your own, and you can draw some interesting patterns on the paper if you like.)

2. A wooden stand. A straw will also work. ?3. kite string. Try to find something thin and light, like fishing line. .4. ribbon. This is used to make the tail of the kite. You can find some nice and light ribbons. 5. Scissors. .6. tape.

Steps:

1. Prepare a piece of paper.

2. Fold the paper in half.

3. Draw a line like this on the folded paper.

4. Fold along that line

5. Fold the other side in the same way.

6. Folded look. It's kind of like the airplane we usually fold.

7. Fix the 2 "wings" with tape.

8. Fix the wooden stand on it. Pay attention to the position of the brackets.

9. The back of the fixed kite.

10.This step is to make a kite line connection. Drill the hole with scissors first, be careful that the hole is not too close to the edge, then tape it down, then pierce the hole with a needle or something more pointed for the kite string.

11. The kite's long tail. This tail serves to stabilize the kite. If your kite is not stable enough in the air, consider shortening or lengthening this tail.

12. The kite is ready! What are you waiting for, try it out!
