Vypin Folklore Fest Dec 28-31, 2021 and Kite Fest

As a part of Vypin Folklore Fest, a kite making and flying was organized by KiteKraft®, a division of KiteLife Foundation. Workshop was held at Indriya Resort at Kuzhuppilly where 35 + participants attended with the support of Kudumbashree.

After the workshop participants marched towards the beach at Kuzhuppilly. 

Children were enthused seeing a kite that they never made and bewildered by its shape that they can carry so easily even pocket it while travel. 'Easy to unfold and fly a kite' The kite made 'Parasled' in the Indian tricolor gave a spirit of nation, patriotism and friendly atmosphere reminding them of brotherhood, share and care.

The event of kites was also an amalgamation of folklore giant kite 'Theyyam' flaunt in red vibrant and bold followed by few other designs like box kite and sport kite performances on the field.

Kite that was made by them were finished in less than an hour and learned the nuances from master kiter from KiteLife Foundation.
