Hello. My name is Tâm, and I live in Di Linh, Vietnam. It's about 230 kilometers
away from Ho Chi Minh City.
I really like to play and have fun with my friends. I love to play spinning tops. I
think it's a really fun game. I also like to play tug of war. I'm strong, so I'm really
good at it. My friends often play shuttlecock. I don't really like it. I think it's boring.
I prefer to jump rope or go to my folk dance class. I dance with my sister every
Sunday. We're not very good at it, but we always have a good time when we
dance. My brother doesn't really like to dance. He usually picks flowers or makes
jewelry. My family likes to play board games together. We sometimes play after
dinner or before bed.
I want to learn some more folk games and teach them to my friends and family. I
think they'll like it.

Write four sentences about what children in your hometown
usually do with their family and friends in their free time.

For example:
Children in my hometown spend more time with their friends because their parents
are busy with their work. They usually play folk games like tug of war, hide and seek
or jumping rope. Sometimes, they play marbles or go fishing. In the evening, they
usually watch TV with their parents while having dinner.
