Make a special book with your child to remember all the Dragon Boat Festival customs at once!
Happy Dragon Boat Festival!
Culture and language are inseparable. Especially for children living overseas, the lack of a daily Chinese cultural environment makes it more difficult for them to deeply understand various traditional festivals and customs. Today is the Dragon Boat Festival. I wonder what activities you plan to do with your children to experience this culturally rich festival?
Why not work with your children to make a "Dragon Boat Festival Customs Book" of your own! In the process of making a small book, children can not only enjoy the fun of making books, but also understand the customs of the Dragon Boat Festival better. Such a handmade book that combines creativity and culture is not only suitable for making on the Dragon Boat Festival, but can also become a festival commemorative work that children can treasure.
