In Vietnam, Tet-Trung-Thu, or the Mid-Autumn Festival, is one of the most popular family holidays. It is held on the 15th day of the 8th lunar month.
Vietname families plan their activities around their children on this special day. In a Vietname folk story, parents were working so hard to prepare for the harvest that they left the children playing by themlves. To make up for that time, the parents would u the Mid-
Autumn Festival as a chance to show their love and thanks for their children.
As a result, the Mid-Autumn Festival is also called the Children’s Festival. In the United States, this tradition continues in many Vietname-American families. Activities are often centered on children and education. Parents buy lanterns (灯笼) for their children so that they can take part in a candle and lantern parade at dawn. Lanterns mean brightness, while the parade means success in school. Vietname markets ll a variety of lanterns, but the most popular children’s lantern is the star lantern. Other children’s activities include arts and crafts（手工艺）in which children make face masks and lanterns. Children also perform traditional Vietname dances for adults and take part in contests for prizes. Unicorn（麒麟）dancers are also very popular.
Like Chine people, Vietname parents tell their children folk stories and rve mooncakes and other special treats under the bright moon. A favorite folk story is about a carp (鲤鱼) that wanted to become a dragon. The carp worked and worked and finally changed itlf into a dragon. Parents u this story to encourage their children to work hard so that they can become whatever they want to be.

Unlike most other holidays, the history of April Fools’ Day, sometimes called All Fools’ Day, is not totally clear. The only point in time that can be agreed on as the beginning of this tradition was 1582, in France. Before that year, the New Year was celebrated for eight days, beginning on March 25. The celebration reached the highest point on April 1. With the reform of the calendar under Charles IX, the Gregorian calendar (公历,阳历) was introduced, and New Year’s Day was moved to January 1.
However, becau in tho days communications were not as developed as they are tod
ay, many people did not receive the news for veral years. Some people refud to accept the new calendar and continued to celebrate the New Year on April 1. The backward people were considered “fools” by other people. They were often nt on “fools’ errands”(徒劳无益的工作) or were made the targets of jokes.
This developed, over time, into a tradition of playing a trick on someone on the first day of April. The tradition eventually spread to England and Scotland in the eighteenth century. It was later introduced to the American colonies of both the Britain and France. April Fools’ Day thus developed into an international fun feast, so to speak, with different nationalities specializing in their own kind of humor at the expen of their friends and families.
