III. HANDS-ON CRAFTS & FAMILY FOOD EXPERIENCES
3.1 Join Craft Workshops with Your Kids
A wonderful way to be creative together while exploring Vietnamese traditions.
Lantern-Making Workshop: Kids can design and decorate their own lanterns—boosting creativity and fine motor skills. Recommended venues include VinSpace Art Studio (former District 2), popular with expat families, and Tí Toáy Atelier (former District 3) for a more local cultural experience.
Mooncake-Making Workshop: Children can knead dough and shape their own festive mooncakes—an engaging sensory activity. Maison Marou (former District 1) offers unique, chocolate-inspired twists, while professional baking schools like Star Kitchen (former Districts 1 & 7) also run seasonal classes.
Note: Class details are usually posted on ticketing platforms (Ticketbox, Eventbrite) or organizers’ social media about 1–2 months before the festival.

No Mid-Autumn Festival is complete without mooncakes.
What to try?
Traditional flavors: Mixed nuts, mung bean, lotus seed.
Modern flavors: Kids often love creative options like lava chocolate, cheese, or milk tea.
