WORKSHOP
Ever wondered why people carry and light lanterns during the Mid-Autumn Festival? In the spirit of joy and reunion, gather your loved ones as Eileen will share a little history behind the festivity, followed by a crafty lantern-making activity.
Suggested age group: 5 and up
Meet Eileen and her lovely grandmother Madam Eng Huay, as they will be making lanterns in celebration of the Mid-Autumn Festival!
The main materials you will need are paper bags, clean food packaging and cellophane (optional).
Cut out different patterns and shapes on the paper bag. Layer them with either the food packaging or cellophane.
Reuse the paper bag handle and string your lantern.
To light up your lantern, use a battery-operated tealight or the flashlight on your smartphone as a light source.
