Simple games of children in the highlands of Nghe An
(Baonghean.vn) - Without many choices and conditions like in the city center, the joy of children in the highlands of Nghe An is to splash around in the rivers and streams, laughing happily on swings, seesaws, merry-go-rounds... made from ropes, bamboo sticks, wooden planks. Simple, rustic but full of laughter.
