How to make a Kite in less than 2 minutes?

1. Take a sheet of lightweight paper or a construction sheet (or download and print the kite design).

2. Fold it in half, bringing the sides together.

3. Fold the top corners down at an angle to form a kite shape, leaving about 1 inch at the top and 2 inches at the bottom.

4. Tape a strip down the center to hold the flaps together.

5. Tape a straw or skewer across the top for support.

6. Punch a hole at the front about one-fourth (1/4th) from the top of the kite and tie a long string through it.

7. Tape streamers to the bottom for a tail.

8. Head outside on a breezy day and fly your kite!
