How do kites battle?

from Kids' Questions Answered · host Emily Dangremond

Go fly a kite! Or battle a kite and try to cut someone else's down from the sky? That's what happens in the new picture book Kai Po Che: Mini's Perfect Kite, written by Suhasini Gupta and illustrated by Devika Oza. Dr. Danger spoke with Suhasini to learn about flying kites and kite battles, in which one kite flyer cuts the tail of another kite. Suhasini spoke about flying kites with her family in India on rooftops and taking a more relaxed approach to kite flying in the US. She shares instructions for making kites with kids and teaches Dr. Danger about the important contributions of kites to science!
