A kite falls head down first to the ground because normally a kites tail has frills which allow the wind resistance to delay it from landing on the ground compared to the head.
== Better Explaination!
___________________________________ == I agree, you should attach a substantial tail. The Purpose is to keep the nose directed upward (angle of attack) allowing the kite to create lift (bernoulli effect). The weight or drag affect also acts like a rudder to keep the kite stable. http://illumin.usc.edu/article.print.php?articleID=57

Why does your kite come down head first when flying it?

When a kite comes down head first, it is likely due to the wind direction and speed. If the wind is too strong or turbulent, it can cause the kite to lose stability and flip over. Adjusting the flying angle or adding a tail to the kite can help prevent it from coming down head first.

What hits the ground first quarter or penny?

Depending on the angle that the coins are falling, if they are falling heads down, completely horizontal with the ground, the quarter has more air resistance then the penny, making the penny hit the ground first. If they are on their sides, so the head is completely vertical with the ground, they are both arrow dynamic and the quarter and the penny hit at the same time. as the acceleration of gravity is -9.8 m/s squared, thus making they fall at the same acceleration.
