Kites were invented by working people in ancient China during the Spring and Autumn Period of the Eastern Zhou Dynasty, which has been more than 2,000 years since. According to legend, Mo Zhai made wooden birds out of wood, which took three years to develop, and was the earliest origin of human kites. Later, Lu Ban used bamboo to improve kite materials in Mo Zhai. It was not until Cai Lun improved papermaking in the Eastern Han Dynasty that people began to make kites out of paper, which was called "paper kites".

In the Northern and Southern Dynasties, kites began to be a tool for transmitting information. Since Sui and Tang Dynasties, due to the development of paper industry, people began to use paper to paste kites. Flying kites became a popular outdoor activity in the Song Dynasty. In Song Dynasty, Zhou Mi wrote in Old Wulin: "During Qingming Festival, people fly kites in the suburbs and return at dusk." "Kite" refers to a kite.

Kites have a history of more than 2,000 years in China. From the traditional China kites, we can see the shadows of auspicious meanings and auspicious patterns everywhere. In the long years, our ancestors not only created exquisite calligraphy and painting that condensed the wisdom of the Chinese nation, but also created many patterns that reflected people's yearning and pursuit for a better life and implied good luck.
