Let’s Fly a Kite in the Sky – A New Year’s Game “Kite Flying”

2026/01/20

Kite flying(たこあげ) is a traditional game that has been enjoyed
in Japan during the New Year since long ago.
A kite made of paper or cloth is attached to a string and flown into the sky using the power of the wind.
When it catches the wind well, the kite flies high, and the sight of it floating
in the blue sky is very beautiful.

Kite flying has no strict rules and can be enjoyed by both children and adults.
Since it is played outdoors and involves moving your body, it is also a great way to refresh yourself.

In Japan, people sometimes fly kites with wishes such as “growing up healthy” and “spending the year in good health.”
Please try it and enjoy this traditional New Year activity.
