The two symbolic customs of the Dragon Boat Festival are picking dragon boats and eating zongzi. According to the textual research of Mr. Wen Yiduo in his thesis "Dragon Boat Festival Examination" and "Dragon Boat Festival History Education" (see Wen Yiduo's complete works), it is believed that the ancestors took "dragon" as a totem and held a grand totem sacrifice every year. One of the activities is to depict a dragon-shaped canoe in the drums, to compete on the water to sacrifice the dragon god, and to have fun with games. This is the origin of the custom of dragon boat racing.

First, we prepare a green cardboard, draw a border on the left and right sides of the cardboard and decorate it with zongzi.

Then write Dragon Boat Festival in the middle blank.

Draw zongzi patterns in the blank space near the border, and write the origin and customs of the border Dragon Boat Festival.

The above is the painting method of handwritten newspaper on Dragon Boat Festival.
