New Years Traditions in China

Chinese New Year is coming. There are a lot of traditions about Chinese

New Year. It is said that Chinese use popping firecrackers to scary away

the monster. But it’s just a legend. Besides, for a fresh start in the New

Year, family spend time to sweeping floors, cutting hair, washing old clothes.

It means everything is new again. We will eat reunion dinner and get

together with our family. After the dinner children will get red envelopes

from adults. Speaking of traditions, Lion Dance is a kind of tradition

in China. The lion Dance banishes last year’s troubles and welcome

the New Year’s promises. In a word, I can't wait to join Chinese New

Year.
