Candle play

Hooray! Is time to play candle again.

Yesterday was the first day of 8th month in Chinese calendar. End of the 7th month ghost festival and welcome lantern festival.

The kids spun into full action of lantern and candle play. 3 of them all have their own lantern.

En En is best in blowing candle. She attempted to light up the candle and actually manage to light it up a few times. When the wax starts to drop, she felt the heat and ended the play by an a ouch!! Her best play is to blow of candle.

Rong is able to light up a lantern all by himself and hang it up too. He cannot do this at three years old. He tried to light up a small lantern and burned it away. That’s the one in the picture. Lucky my ground rule of adult supervision at all time when playing fire save the scene. A blow by me settled the emergency, and the play goes on. The candle heat will not do major damage to the kids. Safety always first when fire play is concern.
