Reflection on Kite Museum

Overall, I think the Kite Museum was quite interesting as we get to see different types of kites that we never seen before. We get to know how kites are made and what are the materials needed. We also get to see kites from different countries and know the purpose why were they made. For example, in Japan, the kites have faces drawn on them in order to ward off bad luck. They also show how kites were made and designed. It was really interesting to see the man designing the kite. Although the pattern was simple, I can see that it takes a lot of skills to make the kite look attractive.

Although we were not given much time to explore the whole museum, I have learnt a lot because there were a lot of informations about the different types of kites. The kites displayed there was also interesting and fascinating. Some of the designs on the kites looks complicated while some has simple patterns on them. Overall, the kites look great.

I hope the school can organize more learning journeys to museums so that we can learn more about the history of for example kite. I really had an enjoyable time there and would recommend it to anyone who is interested in learning more about kites or interested in learning on how to make a traditional kite.
