The Mid-Autumn Moon Festival is a time when families get together when the moon is the brightest and fullest on this day and to give thanks. As part of the celebration, children light up their lanterns and gather with friends and family for festivities. Dyl will walk you through how to make fun paper lanterns with your family!
