Kite-flying is a favourite hobby for many boys. They have a great liking for flying kites.

 

As soon as the school is over, many school boys go back home in a hurry and come out with the kites. They run to fields and house-tops and fly kites until it is night. Some boys fly kites in the morning, at noon, at afternoon. When the school is closed, they do not stay at home. They are found flying kites throughout the whole day. The scorching rays of the midday sun cannot damp them. They run up and down holding the thread of the flying kites and looking at them. They are so excited that they sometimes meet accident. Sometimes grownup people take part in kite-flying.

 

The most interesting thing about kite-flying is the kite match. A boy, who takes part in it, lets his kite so high up in the sky. Then he tries to cut the threads of the kites of others with the thread of his own kite. It is interesting for the people of all ages. Even the women get on the roofs of their houses to witness it. He who succeeds in cutting the thread of the kite of another one, wins the match.

 

Kite-flying is really interesting. It gives pleasure to both the flyers and the spectators. But accidents often take place at the time of flying kite. Boys flying kites become so excited that they lose all senses of time and place. They often fall down from house tops and are wounded or killed.
