Next, wind some string around the outside of the wooden cross, to make the diamond shape. First tie the string onto one end of one of the sticks, and then wind it around each point in turn until it forms a complete diamond shape. Make sure the string is in the notch at each point so it is held securely. Tie the end of the string to the point at which you started.

Place the wooden cross onto the piece of plastic. Ask a friend to hold it in place while you cut the plastic around the kite, to make a kite shape. Make sure you leave at least 2.5cm all the way around the edge of the kite.
