Do you know how to make a Japanese kite?

Normally, no special materials are necessary, unfortunately only you need a Japanese paper called Washi “和紙”.

He is a Japanese kite master who working at Sunai-no-sato, Kanou Shojuan (Otsu city, Shiga prefecture)

My little two British / Brazilian girls are tried to making her own kite, but its too complicated. Firstly, my kids draw on her kite with cute animal pattern and some lovely items.

Very difficult!!!!

But finally….

Making and flying a kite with your child is a great way to spend time together and teaches useful skills, even some basics of aerodynamics. Best of all, it’s fun to take advantage of blustery and freezing days!

Thanks to all staff in Sunai-no-sato! We had a great family day out!
