11-year-old Truong Cao Phong said, “Joining the summer camp, I can make many new friends. During 4 days in the military environment, we were all together during practice periods, at meal and break time. The activities help me gain life skills and become more confident.”
Many parents recognize their children grow into responsible, independent and confident people after the training. “At first, I felt worried when my child joined the training. He becomes more confident and independent. I am so happy,” said Ton Nu Ngoc Chau.

Apart from the training, there were many fun activities for poor children. They were so excited about all games and activities at the recent children's summer camp held by STEAM Nha Trang Group, Thieu Nien Tien Phong Newspaper and Nhi Dong Newspaper in cooperation with Khanh Son District Women’s Union on August 6.
11-year-old Bo Bo Thi Khanh Thuyen in Son Trung Commune, Khanh Son District, said, “My family is poor. My friends and I live in a mountainous area so we have few chances joining such activities. Today, we are taught to make flutes from recycled things, play fun physical and art games such as ‘running with sugar canes’, ‘bringing water to cook rice in bamboo tubes’, ‘playing the Chapi, a musical instrument, with mouth’; peeling durians, grapefruits, etc. I can learn many interesting and useful things in life.”
Various hands-on learning activities have been held and under way by many schools and agencies in Khanh Hoa Province on the occasion of national holidays and especially during the summer break. Such extracurricular activities help students to become more confident. They develop team work, communication and problem-solving skills and become more aware of health care and environmental protection; actions against school violence, traffic accidents, drowning and other social evils.
“Life skill training for kids is essential, teaching them to become more active and independent, improving physical and intellectual well-being. Therefore, every summer, my child takes part in hands-on activities which raise self-discipline and responsibility,” Do Tan Cuong, a father says.
