In China, January 23, 2012, is the beginning of the
year. In China it will be the year 4710! Chinese Newnew
does not fall on the same date each year, although Year
it is
always in January or February.
On New Year’s Day, Chinese people add a year
age, no matter when they were born. This is the to their
biggest
birthday party of all!
The Chinese tell a story that, one day, a great teacher
named Buddha invited all the animals to a meeting.
Only 12 animals came. Buddha named a year after
each
of these animals.
The Chinese year starting January 23, 2012, is named
after the dragon, a powerful, mythical creature.
Find the year you were born. Then work with a parent
to figure out the animal representing the year they
were
born by counting back counter-clockwise. (Someone
born in 1962 would be born in the year of the tiger.)
Chinese communities around the world
celebrate the new year with fireworks,
parades, gongs, music,
eating and gift-giving.
Special foods are
prepared and
homes are cleaned
and then decorated
with the color
– a color
which symbolizes
happiness and good
luck to the Chinese.
