Today was our Chinese Lessons and it was a great class for the kids. Since tomorrow is Chinese New Year, the year of the Tiger, the teacher did alot of fun lessons with the kids. She read a Chinese New Year book about the celebrations, they colored a Chinese dragon, they traced the words for a Good Luck Chinese Scroll, they ate Chinese snacks, they made hong se longe (red chinese dragons) and got red envelopes to take home. For us adults it was fun to watch the excitement of the Chinese people about this holiday. Miss Christina, the teacher, has such a great way to teach the kids chinese. I am even learning some, which I can hopefully pass on to our friends, the D'Aurias when they go to Taiwan.
XIN NIAN KUAI LE! (Happy New Year!)
