Tet Nguyen Dan, also known as Lunar New Year, is the most special holiday of the year for Vietnamese people. This is the occasion when all family members, no matter where they are, will return to gather and reunite with their families and relatives. Not only is it a reunion festival, the beginning of the new year is also the "season" of festivals. On this occasion, each locality across the S-shaped strip of land, especially in the Vietnamese countryside, will organize traditional festivals with many interesting folk games. In today's modern society, folk games seem to be no longer known to many people, but in many villages, these games are still held regularly every year, especially during village festivals, helping relatives and neighbors have the opportunity to connect with each other more. Each locality will organize different folk games according to the preferences and characteristics of each region. However, there are still some outstanding folk games that everyone must know.
