How can we make a kite at home?

Wind Bags...uh, I mean, kites.

Tie together the handles of a plastic shopping bag with the end of a ball of string. Staple a few 2-foot lengths of ribbons to the bottom of the bag for kite tails. Now find a windy spot outdoors and start running. As the bag fills with air, slowly let out string and the kite should begin to soar and dive.
