In China, the Spring festival is the first day of the lunar year.
People usually start preparing for the festival one month before it comes. They prepare delicious food, and clean and decorate their homes.
On Chinese New Year’s Eve, the family all get together for a big dinner. They stay up till midnight, and then play fireworks and crackers for good luck. On the first day of the lunar New Year, children put on their new clothes and greet their parents. They are very happy to get lucky money from them.
