Mooncake festival fun

There’s a big festival for the Chinese…. its called the Mooncake Festival. Its the day when the moon is at its fullest in the 15th day, 8th month (Chinese Lunar Calander) Its a big day with loads of food and even more taboos and myths.

The Malaysian Chinese celebrate this with traditional lanterns as well…. so my cousin and I wanted to do that….. but here, being UK, we couldn’t find the stuff we needed to make it (i.e bamboo sticks, glass coloured paper)…. and we didn’t go to the chinese stores the weekend before (moment of blindness… *sigh*)

So on that day (tuesday) we thought and thought and thought… trying to make use of stuff that is around the house…. and came up with a brilliant plan!

LEGO!!!!! and baking paper!!!
