The way children play in mountainous regions
The games children play and entertain themselves in Vietnam’s mountainous region are different than that of most children and intriguing to visitors.
If you go through roads in mountainous areas in the Northwestern region of Vietnam, you might catch the sight of children racing wooden bicycles down roads.
They drive self-made vehicles to carry firewood to their houses or ride “bicycles” made from chunks of bamboo to race one another on mountain sides whenever they come back home from schools.
Many children here also often ride buffalo calves or bathe in streams and rivers on warm days.
Recently, some adolescents “borrowed” their parents’ motorbikes to practise to be drivers.
