Seems you guys have had a great time @MahabubMunna
Yeah! I have celebrated Makar sankranti with friends when I was schooling in India. The kite cutting event you have mentioned is called "Kaathadi Panthayam" (in Tamil) by the natives of Tamil Nadu.
Also we Sri Lankan Hindus pronounce it as Thai Pongal festival. You may have a look at how we celebrated it this time on this link.
