Story Time: About Vietnamese Teachers’ Day
Kindergarten children celebrating 22/12 Teachers' Day with flowers for their teachers
One day in December, as the weather turned chilly, I was walking in the park with my 5-year-old daughter. Seeing clusters of bright red velvet roses, my daughter exclaimed: “Mom, I want to give flowers to my teacher.” I smiled and asked: “What day do you want to give flowers to your teacher?”. My daughter thought for a moment and replied: “The day my teacher taught me letters, December 22nd!”. My daughter’s innocent and naive words suddenly reminded me of my own childhood.
When I was little, every time December 22nd came, our whole class excitedly prepared small gifts to give to our teachers. The feeling of pride and happiness when expressing gratitude to the teachers who guided us step by step to grow up was unforgettable. Today, as my daughter is also of school age, I appreciate even more the great contributions of teachers. They not only impart knowledge but are also companions, supporting children on their journey to conquer knowledge.
