Juegang Kindergarten in Rudong, Jiangsu Province launches a series of activities called "Green Bud Festival"

(Wu Yamei) Spring is warm and flowers are blooming, and everything is recovering. In this spring season, Juegang Kindergarten in Rudong County, Jiangsu Province welcomes the annual garden-based festival "Green Bud Festival". The mood of spring coincides with the Lantern Festival. The "Lantern Festival" is the first full-moon night after the New Year, the first traditional festival in the "Green Bud Festival", and the first festival celebrated by children in kindergarten after school starts. How to celebrate the festival? The dolls in Juegang Kindergarten have their own ideas. Let us follow the children's footsteps and enter the "Lantern Festival Garden Party" to feel the joyful atmosphere of the festival together.

Garden Lantern Festival, independently planned

Flag-raising ceremony to welcome the Lantern Festival

After the flag-raising, the brothers and sisters of the top class performed the dance "Cute Tiger in the New Year", incarnated Happy New Year to everyone, Little Tiger!

The teacher introduced us to the origin of the "Lantern Festival". Everyone is full of expectations for the upcoming Lantern Festival!

Group Discussion on Lantern Festival

Back in class, they couldn’t wait to discuss the “Lantern Festival” plan and plan their own different Lantern Festival activities. How can we create new ways to enjoy flower lanterns and guess lantern riddles? The child Yaoyao suggested: "Let's hold a garden party like the last sports festival!" This suggestion was approved by everyone. The "Lantern Festival Garden Party" is really exciting! What exactly is there to do at the garden party? Everyone is busy coming up with ideas... Folk games are the best combination with traditional festivals, such as dough-making, blind man playing drums, cockfighting, circling, etc. Everyone is invited to visit the park, play the games and then redeem the prizes. I am a little excited just thinking about it. !

I make the rules of the game

Exercise every day at home during the winter vacation. Rope skipping and throwing are all necessary skills! So how should the rules for throwing sandbags be formulated? Good friends come together to discuss and draw: a person can only have one chance, and a starting line must be set, and you cannot stand anywhere... The rules of the game are freshly released! The children are all talking, "We are one year older and stronger." Tug-of-war is the best venue for strongman performance. There must be the same number of people on both sides of the tug-of-war, and they must pull the red rope in the middle to their team's side to win. Children, do you want to give it a try? The game planners have drawn up the rules of the game. Children who come to play the game must read the rules clearly before playing the game!

Brothers and sisters must really like colorful dough figures. They first prepared the materials for making dough figures, and then made a few of their own dough figures and displayed them in front of the game table for the children participating in the game to have a look. Why are there so many lanterns and so many lantern riddles? Digital lantern riddles are an exclusive creation of our children, so you have to use your brain when guessing the riddles!

Children in each class are very busy preparing game materials of their own design.

Before the event started, the friends went out together to hang their beloved lanterns on the playground, grape trellis and pirate ship.

The lively scene accompanies our excitement, the Lantern Festival Garden Party, here we come!

Let’s swim together and develop naturally

The long-awaited garden party has finally begun! The children came to the sign-in table in the atrium and drew their own unique marks on the park visit cards symbolizing "Lantern Festival Baby". Next, they went straight to the playground for the visit to the playground! The older brothers and sisters in the first class took the initiative to take care of the younger brothers and sisters in the small class. They held hands with the big ones and enjoyed the garden party hand in hand. The children in the middle class walked hand in hand with their friends. Look, the playground is bustling with people walking on stilts, making hoops, and blind people playing drums. Let’s see who can play more smoothly!

The cute brothers and sisters have already smelled the smell and made candied haws. We skewered the fruits together and shared the sweetness!

Sports experts are super fast. I am the best at tug of war and grid jumping! Let’s reminisce about tradition and feel the charm and joy of traditional games!

After a while, the park visit card was covered with marks. After redeeming your favorite gifts and pasting your "Baby Lantern Festival" card into the bowl, the garden party officially comes to an end.

On the Lantern Festival, the heavenly officials give blessings.

The earth is filled with blessings and all things grow.

The children run in the spring breeze that turns warm and cold, play among the vigorously growing green buds, and grow in a free and independent environment!

Our Lantern Festival activities have come to an end, but the spring stories written freely by the children among the green buds are still going on...
