Chinese New Year is a time to celebrate. Chinese New Year starts with the new moon on the first day and 15 days later it ends on the full moon. Chinese New Year falls on a different date each year. This year it’s on February 14. We give each other red envelopes. The red envelopes stand for luck because of the color red. It is the year of the Tiger. We have a lion performing because it scares away the evil spirits. If you give the lion a cabbage they say that you’ll get luck and fortune. 2010 is the year the tiger. Tiger people are aggressive, courageous, and sensitive, celebrating is important year because we get to have a fresh start on the new year.
