Art of Dragon Boat Festival in the Old Yellow Calendar

The Dragon Boat Festival on the fifth day of the fifth lunar month is one of the four traditional festivals in China.

Dragon Boat Festival is coming. How do parents let their children have a meaningful Dragon Boat Festival?

Jingzi suggests that you take your children to play these games during the Dragon Boat Festival, which is fun and can increase your knowledge!

0 1

Tell the children the origin of the Dragon Boat Festival.

You can tell children stories about the Dragon Boat Festival, such as Qu Yuan, a poet of Chu during the Warring States Period, and Wu Zixu, a doctor of Chu at the end of the Spring and Autumn Period. These allusions are conducive to cultivating children's patriotism, loyalty and filial piety, and let children feel the profoundness of traditional culture more deeply.

Teacher Jingzi has prepared a picture book of Dragon Boat Festival for parents to read together.
