Mid-Autumn Festival is an opportunity for parents to teach their children to better understand the meaning of a reunion Tet with activities imbued with traditional culture and connectivity.
House decoration
Parents should spend weekends taking their children to choose and buy house decorations according to the Mid-Autumn Festival theme. Hanging star lanterns on window frames, porches or living room walls will help children feel the atmosphere of Tet reunion season.
Parents can also assign tasks suitable for their age so that children form a sense of responsibility, initiative and self-reliance right from small things. Seeing the results that the family together implements will help children look forward to welcoming the upcoming Mid-Autumn Festival.
Making Mid-Autumn lanterns with recycled materials
Making Mid-Autumn lanterns from plastic bottles, cans of condensed milk or cardboard will help young children unleash their creativity. Parents can guide their children to make small, pretty and unique tray lanterns or lanterns themselves so that they can bring Mid-Autumn lanterns on the full moon day.
The meticulous steps to guide children to make the lantern also help children cultivate patience, as well as learn more about stories associated with the Mid-Autumn Festival night.
Preparing a feast to watch the moon
Preparing a colorful mooncake tray always has an attraction, attracting curiosity for young children. Parents can guide children to create a puppy shape with grapefruit, arrange each baked cake, sticky cake on a ceramic plate, display fruits beautifully...
The eagerness to wait to break the feast with the family will help children feel more clearly the warm atmosphere of the Mid-Autumn Festival, and at the same time appreciate the moment of reunion and love with family members.
