Promoting traditional Chinese festivals
Traditional Chinese festivals are an important part of Chinese culture. We must protect and promote these festivals so that our children can understand what it means to be Chinese.
Traditional festivals teach us about our country’s history. Rich humanistic spirits can be found at the heart of traditional festivals, a result of Chinese values of kindness and unity being passed down from generation to generation. By observing traditional festivals, we will have a better understanding of the historical importance of these qualities in our country. We can therefore develop our national pride.
