Chinese New Year Activities For Kids

It’s always good to learn about cultures, traditions and customs. Planning some Chinese New Year activities to do with your children can help them learn more about Chinese culture and heritage.

I posted some of the Chinese New Year food traditions over at She Knows Parties, as well as some Chinese New Year party ideas.

Here at Play Library I want to talk about some fun activities you can do with your kids to celebrate the Chinese New Year coming up in a few weeks.

• Printable dragon masks from Animal Jr.
• Chinese Paper Lanterns from Kaboose
• Chinese New Year Pups Coloring Page, and more from Printables4Kids
• 2010 is the Year of the Tiger, here are some year of the tiger craft ideas from Activity Village
• Chinese New Year printables and coloring pages from Nick Jr. (they also have invitations and thank you notes for a kids Chinese New Year Party)
• Chinese New Year Lucky Red Envelopes from Kaboose

Have fun celebrating and learning with your kids!
