Children of Bich Dong village do morning exercises

For the past half month, every morning at 5:30, 80 children from Bich Dong village have gathered at the village cultural center to participate in morning exercises. Here, the children are guided by their teachers to practice healthy exercises. Having just finished the exercise, Can Huynh Trang said that she and her friends have participated in nearly 10 sessions and are all very excited to go to the practice field every morning.

At the An Thuong village cultural house, every morning there are often 50 - 80 children participating in practice. Joining them are the leaders of the Youth Union, the leaders, the teachers in the village... to guide them. The atmosphere is lively and joyful with the exercises taking place regularly for about 1 hour every morning. Tran Thi Dung in An Thuong village shared: "It's been a long time since we've participated in collective activities like this, so we're very happy. After each hour of practice, I feel much healthier and more relaxed."

Ms. Vu Thi Ha Chi, in charge of the An Thuong Village Youth Union, said that as a student, she volunteered to guide the children in the village during the summer break. This was her first year participating in activities with the children, but she found this activity very interesting. "Morning exercise not only helps children improve their health but also creates solidarity, attachment, and mutual support," Ms. Chi said.

Since the end of May, all sectors, organizations, and villages in Nam Chinh commune have developed specific summer activity plans and implemented many activities to create a healthy playground for youth and children in the commune. The Youth Union Executive Committee has proactively developed plans and coordinated with the villages to organize morning physical exercise activities to promote the movement of physical exercise following the example of Uncle Ho. After more than half a month of organization, this activity has been maintained regularly in the villages. Every morning, children are present at the cultural houses of the villages to participate in physical exercise for 1 hour. After that, many children continue to participate in swimming classes and soccer practice; In the evening, children practice performing arts and participate in folk games... In addition to the above activities, Nam Chinh Commune Youth Union also organizes U10 football tournament, children's swimming tournament, launches movements such as "Volunteer Saturday", "Green Sunday" and gratitude activities to celebrate the 75th anniversary of War Invalids and Martyrs Day, July 27.

Mr. Vu Phuc Vang, Secretary of the Youth Union of Nam Chinh commune, said that the whole commune currently has nearly 700 teenagers and children. In previous years, the rate of children participating in summer activities was only 40-50%, but this year it has attracted about 85% of teenagers and children. With many attractive activities, parents are also more assured because their children can have a real summer, while limiting the use of phones and computers, avoiding possible accidents and injuries.
