Flute kite This is the name one of our traditional toys. It’s popular toy for the kids in my place every afternoon on summer day. When the sun turns into the west and the wind starts blowing it’s time for children in my village are together. They lead cows with ropes a long canal bank then they fix them by wood stakes. To fed cows is the children’s job they do it whenever they don’t have to go to school. While cows eating children set up their kites. Nowaday there are many different types and shapes of kite such as paper kite, nylon kite, simple kite, complex kite, fish kite, dragon kite, boat kite… But in my village, we just have boat and diamond and we attached a flute on them then it’s called flute kites. They are made by colorful nylon material with bamboo frame. There is a flute on the head. As you know we need at least 2 people to help the kite taking off. The first person holds the rope while the other tosses the kite. When it flies on sky the wind runs through flute that makes a soft and humming sound. A small fly a kite competion is opened. The goal is how to make your kite flies further, higher and the flute sounds more louder more resounding. Prize is a pan of baked sweet potatoes. All children are eager to join it. That makes sky is full of interesting animals and boats. It likes the ocean view from bottom over above. They keep those kites outside through the night until next morning. This is the part I love most. Im free to enjoy the soft smooth humming sound while sleeping. The sound same as lullaby of mother. Even I’m going to live in a city next month but I will never forget this sound because it likes blood through my body.
