Parents who turned up at ELFA Preschool @ Serangoon on 21 September 2018 made this year\u2019s Mid-autumn festival \u4e2d\u79cb\u8282 super special for their children, as they bonded and enjoyed the various activities organised for them.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

After the teachers had shared stories on legend and the significance of the festival, which is also known as Mooncake Festival usually celebrated on the 15th<\/sup> day of the eighth Lunar Month, the children sang and danced for their parents.<\/p>\n<\/div>

\"\"<\/p>\n<\/div>

As part of the tradition, children joined in the \u201criddles\u201d game and made moon cakes with their parents under the guidance of the teachers. They also brought out their self-made lantern fashioned from recycled materials for a \u201cparade\u201d with their parents and teachers.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

\"\"<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

\"\"<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>

Everyone enjoyed the festivities and the specially made moon cakes. The event amply fulfilled the spirit of the festival, which is to celebrate the Chinese value of home and family.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/div><\/div>
