The programme is a meaningful activity which helps visitors, especially children, better understand the cultural heritages of ethnic groups in Vietnam, as well as many countries around the world, thereby inspiring pride and awareness of preserving cultural heritages among young people.
Coming to the Vietnam Museum of Ethnology on this occasion, children can participate in many useful and interesting activities, such as learning about flags, currencies and capitals of countries, painting and drawing pictures of the cultural heritage of Southeast Asian countries, and experiencing virtual reality (VR), joining STEM (Science, Technology, Engineering, Mathematics) activities, and learning about heritages.
In addition, children and their parents have the opportunity to experience folk games from many countries, such as the beanbag toss (Japan), tug of war (Vietnam and Thailand), ‘o an quan’ (mandarin square capturing) from Indonesia, Malaysia and Vietnam, and can throwing (Philippines and Vietnam).
Through folk games, children can explore and learn about the traditional and unique cultures of Vietnam, and other countries in the region and the world. During the game, children learn how to communicate, cooperate and work in groups. The games are also a way for children to exercise, and improve their health and endurance.
