The Easter holiday in Haiti is also associated with kites. Although this tradition has been fading for several years, some vendors still continue, willingly or reluctantly, to make new models for the enjoyment of both children and parents.

In a context where younger generations are showing less and less interest in flying kites during the Easter period, manufacturers must redouble their determination to keep this activity alive. “This tradition still exists thanks to our perseverance,” said a vendor encountered on a street in Pétion-Ville, before adding: “Children are no longer as interested as before.”
