Kites for Clean Monday

Of course! At Decathlon.com.gr as well as in Decathlon stores, you’ll find kites in many designs for both kids and adults. Butterfly, airplane, eagle, or even stunt kites — everything you need for flying on Clean Monday. And don’t worry if it’s not very windy: there are models for light wind, so the tradition won’t be missed!

A lightweight kite with a stable design and a single spar is ideal for anyone—young or old—who wants to fly a kite. For beginners, classic diamond or butterfly-shaped kites are the safest choice because they’re easy to set up and fly steadily. If it’s not very windy, there are models that can “catch” even in light wind, so you won’t feel stressed and can enjoy the fun of Clean Monday!

To choose a kite for a young child, you should take their age into account. For very small children from 3 years old, opt for a lightweight kite with a light spar so it’s easy to handle and won’t tire the child. For older kids, there are more options, as they can choose between a classic single-line kite or even a stunt kite with two lines for a more impressive result. In any case, kites that are easy to assemble and have a stable design are the safest choice so they can be ready to play in no time!

A kite, the string, and the handle are all you need to fly a kite. At Decathlon, when you buy a kite, everything you need is included in the package, so you don’t have to look for extra materials. All you have to do is assemble it very easily using the provided instructions, and you’re ready for some fun in the air.

The best places to fly a kite on Clean Monday are open areas with few obstacles, such as large hills, beaches, or big parks. Wind is your main teammate when flying a kite, so choose spots with open space and a clear path so you can move freely and the kite can fly steadily. Always keep a safe distance from trees, power lines, and roads so you can fly safely. Don’t forget good company and your kite — and the wind will be your best teammate wherever you are.
