At a primary school in Qingdao, students recently took part in a vibrant display of traditional Chinese culture. Guided by their teachers, children immersed themselves in the beauty of intangible cultural heritage by learning and creating various traditional crafts.

The diverse range of hands-on activities included clay sculpting, velvet flower making, tie-dyeing, and bamboo weaving. Through these interactive sessions, students not only acquired practical skills but also gained a deeper appreciation for China's rich cultural legacy.

The school's initiative aims to foster pride and continuity among the younger generation by connecting them with traditional arts in an engaging and educational environment.

This cultural program underscores the school's commitment to integrating heritage education into daily learning. By allowing children to touch, create, and explore, the activity turns abstract cultural concepts into tangible, memorable experiences. Such efforts are crucial for keeping traditional crafts alive and inspiring future generations to value and preserve their cultural roots.
