Chinese New Year Activities

It’s a bright new day, a brand new week, and today is the Chinese New Year .  Do you have plans to learn a little about Chinese culture today?  Learning about cultural holidays is a fun way to expand your history and geography lessons.  Know a Chinese friend that could talk to your children about the history of the Chinese New Year?  It would be a great way to reinforce cultural awareness in your kids.

If you don’t know someone who would be willing to step in and explain the back-story of the Chinese New Year, head on over to Activity Village where you can get information about the history of the Chinese New Year, printables , games , crafts , stories , and other activities.  In addition to the Chinese New Year’s activities, there are also many traditional Chinese games , so you’ll probably find something new and fun to do with your kids to help them relate better to the history and geography of the region.
