In my opinion, it is important to have a day to celebrate for our parents On these
occasions, children will have a special day to
express their feelings, memories and love for
their parents We have an opportunity to
enhance family traditions Members of family
have a chance to get together
I think the first Sunday of April is the most suitable day to celebrate because Sunday is a
day off so everybody is free from work or
study April is in late spring or early summer,
and the weather is generally fine at this time of
the year, many activities can happen outdoors
- answer orally

Trang 3It's not necessary to have parties but it's a good idea to have lunch or dinner with all members
of the family Children should give their parents flowers, send them cards, or bring them a special cake Children should serve their parents the food that they like best
