Getting ready for Lantern Festival Celebration in school

Our school will be having a Mid-Autumn festival celebration tomorrow evening and with it, there's a DIY lantern contest. We are supposed to make our own lanterns with Daddy and Mummy for this parent-child bonding activity. Mummy had been cracking her head over this and eventually she decided that we'll have 2 similar lanterns made from paper bags. She did all the cutting and cut out letters of our names, fishes, starfishes, shapes & etc ... for us to stick on their lanterns ourselves. With this activity, she was pleasantly surprised to learnt that we know how to spell our own names and the sequence of the letters in our names.

We all look forward to the event tomorrow evening with singing, storytelling and drama performances by teachers, Chinese riddles and games, moon cake making and sampling, potluck dinner (Mummy is going to prepare one of our favourites - braised chicken wings), lantern parade & etc ... Praying hard for good weather ...
