Inheriting Tradition, Sharing Joy: Dragon Boat Festival and Children's Day

Inheriting Tradition, Sharing Joy: Dragon Boat Festival and Children's Day

June 04, 2024

In China, the summer season not only brings the traditional Dragon Boat Festival but also the laughter-filled Children's Day. These two festivals embody the essence of Chinese culture and bring endless joy to children. Let's explore these celebrations together, experiencing the blend of tradition and modernity.

 

Dragon Boat Festival: The Charm of Ancient Traditions

The Dragon Boat Festival, celebrated on the fifth day of the fifth lunar month, commemorates the great poet Qu Yuan. For thousands of years, people have expressed their admiration for Qu Yuan and their pursuit of a better life through various unique customs.

During the Dragon Boat Festival, dragon boat races are the most iconic activity. Rivers across the country host these competitive events, with the beating of drums and synchronized rowing. This not only showcases the combination of strength and beauty but also symbolizes unity and cooperation.

Another highlight of the Dragon Boat Festival is tasting Zongzi. These are pyramid-shaped dumplings made of glutinous rice wrapped in bamboo or reed leaves, often containing various fillings. The aroma and rich flavors of Zongzi differ from region to region, reflecting local characteristics and folk wisdom.

To ward off evil spirits and bring health and peace, people hang mugwort and calamus on their doors during the Dragon Boat Festival. Children wear sachets made of colorful silk threads filled with herbal medicines, which are both decorative and practical, embodying blessings for their health and safety.

Suzhou Dream Vision Co.Ltd has prepared Zongzi gift boxes for employees to celebrate the Dragon Boat Festival together.         

Children's Day: A Time of Joy for Kids

June 1st marks International Children's Day, a much-anticipated day for children. It is not only a time for them to play and have fun but also a crucial occasion for society to focus on and protect children's rights.

On this day, parks and amusement venues organize a variety of entertaining activities, where children can immerse themselves in games and interactions, enjoying their special day to the fullest. Theaters offer special children's plays and concerts, providing educational entertainment that stimulates imagination and creativity.

Children's Day is also an excellent opportunity for parents to spend quality time with their kids. Outings, museum visits, and parent-child activities create lasting memories in a warm family atmosphere, strengthening the bond between parents and children.

Moreover, many charitable organizations hold donation and fundraising events during Children's Day to help underprivileged children and orphans. These charitable actions spread love and encourage more people to focus on children's growth and development.

Suzhou Dream Vision Co.Ltd also provided additional benefits for employees' children under the age of 14.

Festival Convergence: Inheritance and Care

The Dragon Boat Festival and Children's Day, though originating differently, converge in the summer, adding color to our lives. The Dragon Boat Festival preserves the rich traditions of Chinese culture, while Children's Day highlights society's care and concern for the future. Let us, during these two festivals, enjoy the charm of traditional culture and create beautiful memories for children.

Let us work together to inherit culture and care for children, creating a better and more harmonious world for them. May every child grow up healthy under the sun and have a bright future; may our traditional culture continue to flourish in modern society.
