Training soft skills for children through experiential activities

The "Little Merchant" activity has 16 booths organized by children.

The “Summer Fair” program has many interesting and educational activities, training and developing soft skills for children. Notably, the “Little Merchant” activity with the participation of 16 booths selling or exchanging items: school supplies, toys, books, storybooks, food, etc. is worth noting.

With this activity, children can experience and do everything themselves from decorating stalls, advertising, selling or exchanging products with other friends; organizing promotional programs, taking care of customers... with the support of their parents.

Participating in the fair with the booth “Gummy Candy Shop”, Truong Dai Phong, a student at Nguyen Hue Secondary School, said that the booth was created with the joint efforts of 6 children. The children made different types of gummy candy by hand under the guidance of their parents and learned how to display, advertise and sell the products.

“We are very happy to be able to create a booth together and practice selling like adults. Through this activity, I also learned many skills and gained confidence in communicating with people,” Phong shared.

Ms. Hoang Thi Lan Anh, a resident of Son Tra ward, shared: “This is a very meaningful activity, helping children both play and learn. Here, children not only have the opportunity to interact and have fun, but also learn many soft skills necessary in life. In addition, through making and selling products, children can understand the meaning of labor and appreciate the things that serve life.”

Children are free to exchange and buy and sell products at the fair.
