    About this Kite Kit: Created in Cambodia by the director of the Khmer Kite Museum, this distinctively shaped traditional children’s “pocket” kite kit or Kleng Bao is made of paper from Cambodia with a bamboo frame, and is flown by children throughout Cambodia.  Decorate with markers, ink, watercolor, or collage. Easy to assemble and easy to fly. Each 10 pack contains sail, tails, and bamboo spars for 10 kites along with 10 winders (kite line). You supply the scissors and tape.

    Recommended Age: Age 5 and up.

    Decoration: The simplest method is to use marker pens, but substituting the bond paper for more interesting light weight paper with color or patterns would work. NOTE: do not increase the weight of the paper, match the weight of the bond.  

    Ideal wind conditions for this kite: Light (flag on a pole gently moving, not fluttering) to Medium (a flag on a pole is steadily moving, fluttering).

    Sold in packages of 10 kite kits.
