When I was a child, I heard the old people say that if you miss someone very much, write his name on the kite and fly it. The wind will find that person for you with your thoughts. There is also a saying that if the family is ill, they can also fly kites. After the kites fly, they cut the lines, and the disease will go with the wind.
Swallow shaped kites are common in China. When flying kites in spring, the scene of swallow kites flying in the sky with swallows is still very beautiful. Hexagonal kites are Japanese. In Japan, people also have the hobby of flying kites. Their kite shape is the most common hexagonal. In addition, there is a fish like kite, which is also common in Japan.
In terms of workmanship, neither swallow kite nor hexagonal kite is as simple as diamond kite. This diamond kite is more convenient to make. It is also the most common type in kite stores.
