Modern life makes members of the extended family have few opportunities to meet and chat. Geographical distance and generation sometimes make the relationship between siblings and relatives gradually become distant.
Prepare to welcome the Lunar New Year, let's put aside work and participate together in meaningful activities to help connect the feelings of the members of the extended family.
Join the year-end party
The year-end party is one of the meaningful activities, helping the extended family gather together. After a year of hard work, the year-end party is also an opportunity for family members to meet and share everything together.
This is not simply a feast but an opportunity for children and grandchildren to gather and visit grandparents and aunts and uncles in the house. And to hear adults in the house tell about old Tet or traditional family activities that need to be maintained and preserved.
Go to mourn graves
Tomb-laying is a custom performed by each family at the end of the year. On the days leading up to Tet, generations in the family often gather fully to go to tomb-laying to burn incense and invite ancestors to celebrate Tet.
This activity with profound humanistic meaning will help bring connection and better understanding of the origins between generations of families. This is also a way to nurture filial piety and gratitude from descendants to ancestors.
Preparing for the Lunar New Year
Lunar New Year is approaching, planning to buy gifts together will help family members understand each other better. Thinking about each gift suitable for each family is also a way to express affection for each other.
Let's go and choose gifts for grandparents and parents to see that family is always a peaceful place to welcome us back after a year of constantly trying to work.
