Kindergarten children learn about TetMaking banh chung (square glucinous rice cake) or creating peach blossoms from paper are among the festivities that kids from many public and private kindergartens across the nation have experienced in preparation for the upcoming Tet (Lunar New Year) festival. Kids at Chip Chip kindergarten in Hai Ba Trung District are eager to learn how to make banh chung from teachers. Many schools have also organised cultural programmes such as Tet fairs, in which the children have the chance to learn about the cultural heritage, nature and traditional celebrations of Vietnamese people. The Louis Gifted Kindergarten has organised an exhibition of paintings to raise funds for poor kids on the occasion of Tet. These activities are believed to be a good way for Vietnamese children to learn to value and preserve the traditional culture.
