NDO - On the evening of September 29, "I hold the star lantern and sing loudly, the star lantern is bright with the colors of the full moon festival night" was the bustling song of the children of officials of Vietnamese representative agencies in France during the Full Moon Festival Night.

The organizing committee has prepared many meaningful activities, bringing a joyful and bustling atmosphere of the traditional full moon night of August, leaving many emotions for the families of the officers working away from home, especially the children.

The fruit tray is elaborately decorated with delicious fruits and colorful traditional toys such as lion heads, papier-mâché masks, lanterns, star lanterns, etc. transported from Vietnam.

“Tung ding ding ding ding ding ding, Uncle Ho's stars shine everywhere”, the lively and familiar melody performed by the children serves as a reminder to anyone of childhood memories during each family reunion festival.

The rhythmic steps of the Earth God with a large fan, along with the joyful dance of the lion, make any generation or age of the Vietnamese representative agencies in France feel full of eager anticipation.

Vietnamese Ambassador to France Dinh Toan Thang sent his best wishes for health, good behavior and good study to children on the occasion of the new school year.

At the festival, the children enthusiastically participated in performing their specialties.

To give children of Vietnamese representative agencies unforgettable memories of the traditional Mid-Autumn Festival, the Vietnamese Embassy in France launched a contest for children called “Full Moon Festival” to encourage them to make their own lanterns.

The lanterns were of various colors and materials, impressing the judges with the intelligence, ingenuity and dexterity of the children, who were able to utilize recycled and environmentally friendly materials.

The lanterns made by the children are indispensable in the festival, making the Mid-Autumn Festival at the Vietnamese Embassy in France more brilliant.

The competition not only encourages talented and skillful children but is also a great time to connect family members together, so that children can have more memorable memories during their time living in France.

Folk games like tug of war are always looked forward to by children.

Officials of Vietnamese representative agencies in France are busy preparing for the Mid-Autumn Festival for children, but it also feels like returning to the Mid-Autumn Festival in their childhood memories.
