Kite Festival: Learn to befriend with wind

Saturday, August 8th, 2009--As an archipelago country, Indonesia is a country with great wind. No wonder, almost every single person in Indonesia knows how to play the kite. Some of these people take the kite-flying activity very seriously and held this wonderful kite festival in Ancol on 8th of August 2009.

ISCO children were invited and very much glad to be able to see marvelous kinds and shapes of kites: flying cow kite, big crab kite, peacock kite, garuda bird kite, batman kite, tiger kite, and many one-of-the-kind kites. These kites came from various countries such as Indonesia, Germany, Cambodia, Japan, etc.

Not only became a spectator, the children got the opportunity to make kites for themselves and learn how to fly them. (Not a very easy task, you have to befriend with the wind. Luckily, the wind loves the children, and it was easier for them to fly the kites.)

That particular day, the sky was full with kites and laughter of the children.
