The Cheerfulness of National Day Celebration on 2013


Who does not feel happy when they celebrate the Independence Day of Indonesia with traditional games which are identical with the Independence Day celebration? Indonesia gained her Independent on August 17, 1945 after Japan was defeated by Dutch on World War II. This year was the 68th years of independent celebration.

The joy was also rejoiced by friends from Gloria Senggarang Preaching Point, shown the enthusiasm on the Independence Day celebration, organized on Saturday, August 16, 2013. This year’s concept had little difference with the last two years. If on previous festival, only kids were participated on the games; on this year moms had to take part. There was also a simple worship and national songs presented by the kids.

These were the opening worship of the 68th Indonesia National Day carnival.

Kids were competing to find coins as many as possible, only can use their mouths put into the plates of flour.
Place your face at the bowl of flour to get the coins as many as possible
This game should not be forgotten on the 17th August festival every year: eating cracker contest. All the participants had to finish the cracker with their mouths only.
Eating Crakers Competition has been the part of the games organized all over the nation for celebrating National Day
If you ever played tug of war, you will be using thick and heavy ropes. At this time, as the kids were not able to hold heavy item, we use thin plastic ropes instead of thick and heavy ropes.

The moms had to smell the local herbs which used in the tasty Indonesia culinary with blindfold. This is one of the item competed for the moms.

Whose mom knew the taste of herbs well?
Compactness between moms and kids are checked by the game which involved the mom and kid to move the balloon using their head from one point to another. The fastest family came out as the winner.
United we (mom and kid) stand
 Congratulations to all winners!!!
We were the winner
We were also the winner
Happy Indonesia 68th Independence Day
