今天上午12点半，聚会活动圆满结束，预报名10个家庭。来了9个小朋友，8位家长，呵呵。好热闹! 这次活动，有点仓促啦，刚才还有妈妈咨询呢。下次争取提前一周告诉大家聚会内容和安排。 另外，英语的单词，和文本，我们在群里给大家共享了。虽然对小点儿的孩子，有些难度，但总还是有情景的，非常容易记住哦。
今年第二次英语主题的聚会： Lantern Festival (元宵节）& Tangyuan（Yuanxiao）“包汤圆” The round shape of the balls and the bowls where they are served, come to symbolise the family togetherness. （汤圆，和碗的形状，都象征着家庭和和美美，圆圆满满。） to celebrate Lantern Festival, there are many different activities in northern or southern China.
在我国的南方北方，人们用各种不同的活动，来庆祝元宵节。
