When planning the Dragon Boat Festival in kindergarten, you can consider the following three activities: making zongzi, dragon boat racing and tying colored lines.

1. Make zongzi.

Invite parents and children to make zongzi together, and let the children personally participate in making traditional Dragon Boat Festival food. You can prepare zongzi leaves, glutinous rice and various fillings, and then organize children to wrap zongzi according to the guidance and demonstration. This not only allows children to experience traditional culture, but also promotes hand-eye coordination and social interaction.

2. Dragon boat race.

Set up a small dragon boat race venue outdoors or indoors, and prepare dragon boat decorations and some small dragon boat races. Let the children team up to participate in the dragon boat race and experience rowing, cooperation and team spirit. Through this activity, children can not only feel the importance of teamwork, but also exercise and enhance their coordination ability.

3. The art of tying colored lines.

Use colorful materials such as paper, rope and colored thread to organize children's creative activities in the art of tying colored thread. You can provide some templates related to the Dragon Boat Festival, such as wormwood leaves, five-pointed stars and dragon boats, so that children can choose their favorite patterns and tie out the outlines and details of the patterns with colored lines. This activity can exercise children's hands-on ability, creativity and image thinking.

Dragon Boat Festival is a summer festival and an important node in the traditional farming culture of China. Ancient people thought that summer was easy to cause pestilence and diseases, so the Dragon Boat Festival was also to pray for expelling pestilence, health and safety.
