As the Dragon Boat Festival arrives, the aroma of zongzi fills the air,Marking another midsummer season.
To let everyone experience the charm of this traditional festival
And strengthen team cohesion,The company carefully planned a fun and heartwarming Dragon Boat Festival event.
From the sweet encounter of cakes and milk tea to the joyful competition of zongzi-making,And the craftsmanship of sachet-making—every segment was full of surprises.
Let’s revisit this "zong"-tastic event through the lens!
Sweet Delights | Cakes and Tea Warm the Heart
At the event,
Neatly arranged cakes and milk tea were the first to catch the eye.
Exquisite cakes topped with fresh fruits,
Vibrant and mouthwatering;
Fragrant milk tea,
With its rich blend of milk and tea aromas,
Instantly awakened the taste buds.
Everyone gathered around,
Enjoying the delicious desserts and drinks while chatting about fun moments in life and work.
Laughter filled the air.
The sweetness not only melted away work fatigue
But also brought colleagues closer,
Creating a relaxed and heartwarming atmosphere.
Skillful Zongzi-Making | "Zong" Joy and Laughter
After indulging in sweet treats,
The exciting zongzi-making session officially began.
Glutinous rice, red dates, bamboo leaves, and other ingredients were ready,
And everyone rolled up their sleeves, eager to try.
A few "folk experts" stepped up as "zongzi mentors,"
Demonstrating their skills: deftly rolling bamboo leaves into a funnel shape,
Scooping a layer of rice, adding fillings,
Covering with another layer of rice, and tying it tightly with string—
A perfectly angular zongzi was complete.
The watching colleagues were captivated, itching to give it a try.
Once the hands-on session started,
The venue turned into a sea of laughter.
Beginners ran into all sorts of hilarious mishaps:
Xiao Wang’s bamboo leaf "gave way," spilling the filling,
Earning everyone’s good-natured laughs;
Nearby, Xiao Li fumbled,
Producing lopsided zongzi dubbed "abstract art."
But with the mentors’ patient guidance,
Everyone gradually got the hang of it.
Soon, zongzi of all shapes covered the table—
Some plump and round, others sharp and angular—
Filling everyone with pride!
An impromptu "zongzi-making competition" further ignited the excitement.
Contestants raced against the clock,
While the crowd cheered them on.
Shouts and laughter intertwined,
Even the air buzzed with joy.
Sachet-Making | Crafting Fragrance with Skill
Compared to the "technical" zongzi-making,
Sachet-making was all about "easy and fun."
Pre-cut circular fabric, colorful threads,
Mugwort-filled spice pouches,
And star- and moon-shaped pendants were prepared—
Just three steps to create a festive keepsake.
Step 1: Place the spice pouch in the center of the fabric.
Step 2: Sew along the edge with thread, pulling tight at the end to form the sachet.
Step 3: Attach a pendant and add simple decorations.
Even beginners could master it effortlessly!
Creativity flourished:
Some embroidered "Good Health" in gold thread,
Others strung colorful beads,
Giving their sachets a "necklace."
Soon, the office was filled with the gentle scent of mugwort,
And delicate sachets swaying with tassels
Became everyone’s "Dragon Boat Festival treasure."
Many planned to take them home,
Sharing this handmade gift with their families.
A Heartwarming Festival | Together in Warmth
This Dragon Boat Festival event not only allowed everyone to experience the joy of making zongzi and sachets
But also deepened communication and collaboration among colleagues,
Strengthening team cohesion and unity.
Looking at their handmade zongzi and sachets,
Everyone’s faces glowed with happiness.
On this festival steeped in tradition,
The company created a heartwarming event,
Making every employee feel the warmth of home.
In the future, the company will continue to organize diverse cultural activities,
Preserving and promoting China’s rich heritage,
And creating a better work-life experience for all.
Wishing you a peaceful and healthy Dragon Boat Festival!

And our bonds as lasting as the fragrance of sachets.

Where we’ll create even more wonderful memories together!
