We are going to hold a kite competition.

Flying a kite is one of the traditional folk games and a holiday custom in Tomb-Sweeping Day. Kites are also called organ, paper kite, kite and paper kite. Originated in China, it is a communication tool invented by ancient working people. Lu Ban made his first kite out of bamboo. Later, only the palace had paper kites. In Minnan, it is called wind blowing. Kite is a product that is heavier than air and can float in the air with the help of wind.

In the late Tang Dynasty, bamboo flutes were added to paper kites. Kites fly into the sky and are blown by the wind, making a "whoop" sound, like the sound of playing kites. So people changed the name of "paper kite" to "kite". In modern times, kites and organs are collectively called, including paper kites without whistles. Yangjiang is known as the kite capital.
