Now most Chinese students only have holidays in summer and winter. During the holidays, some students stay at home doing their homework. Others travel with their family. How do kids in the US and UK spend their holidays? Let’s take a look.

Summer camp is one of kids’ favourite places to go. There, they can make new friends. They can also take part in some interesting activities like archery (射箭) and sailing. This helps them learn teamwork.

Spring break can be a great time to travel. Middle school students usually travel with their parents. Beaches are one of their favoutites.

Summer holiday: late July — September Christmas holiday: mid-December — early January. Easter holiday: late March — mid-April Autumn break: one week in October
