How to write a composition about the history of kites?

The history of kites "The children came back from school early, so they were busy flying kites in the east wind." This poem must be familiar to everyone! Yes, this is the poem of the Qing Dynasty poet Gao Ding's Village Residence. Today, I will introduce my favorite traditional culture of China-kites.

China is the hometown of kites. Kites in ancient China were called wooden kites because they were made of wood. Later, it was called a paper kite with paper paste, and the last five generations were named kites. Up to now, people still have kites and their names. It is called paper kite in the north and kite in the south.

The history of kites can be traced back to the Spring and Autumn Period more than 2,000 years ago. Around the Five Dynasties, kites entered the folk and became toys for people's entertainment and games. Kite artists in northern China usually call kites flying machines created by themselves, which embodies the entertainment of kites. It is also a good physical exercise. During the Ming and Qing Dynasties, flying kites in Tomb-Sweeping Day became a seasonal folk activity.

Kites with unique local characteristics can be seen everywhere in China. They have different styles, some are uninhibited, some are lively and exquisite, and some are colorful. My family has a mermaid kite with a hard frame. Whenever the spring breeze blows, my parents take me to fly kites in the city square. Kites bring endless fun to my life.
