     The soothing process of painting is often interesting to young children. The pleasant feeling of painting over and over, possibly using two brushes or their fingers is important. We need to encourage the experience where it interests the child, not the adult. As children develop, they become more focused on creating representations and expressing ideas.                                                
     Young children need large pieces of paper as well as a variety of brush sizes to experiment with. Colour mixing provides endless discoveries.                                                                                                
     Painting areas should support the child’s physical abilities. Easels should be at correct height. Move chairs from tables to allow children to stand and paint if they wish. Very young children can be held in a lap or sit on the floor with an adult. The idea is to make the child feel most comfortable when painting.

     The Complex of Hue Monuments is located in and around Hue City. Hue was established as the capital of Viet Nam in 1802. It was the political, cultural and religious centre under the Nguyen Dynasty.
     The Ngu Binh Mountain and the Perfume River, which runs through the city, give this unique feudal capital great natural beauty.                                                                                                                  
     The central structure is the Hue Citadel. It was the administrative centre of southern Viet Nam during the 17th and 18th centuries.                                                                                                                  
     Outside the Capital City there are several other monuments: Van Mieu (Temple of Literature), Dan Nam Giao (Esplanade of Sacrifice to the Heaven and Earth), Ho Quyen (Royal Area), Den Voi Re (Temple of the Roaring Elephant), and Chua Thien Mu (Celestial Lady Pagoda).
