“Lunar New Year” is celebrated by many Asian communities and begins on 29th January 2025, marking the arrival of the Year of the Snake in the Chinese Zodiac. This vibrant festival features red decorations, family get togethers, delicious food, dancing dragons, parades and festive fireworks, celebrating joy for several days.
At Tiny Toez, we strive to offer children opportunities to explore various cultures and traditions from around the globe, helping them understand and connect with the wider world around them.
The children at Tiny Toez @ East Staffordshire have had a fantastic time participating in a vibrant dragon dance to celebrate the festivities. The purpose of the dragon dance is to bring good luck and prosperity for the coming year.
In the Preschool room, the children collaborated to paint and decorate the dragon using various materials, discussing the dragon’s movements along the way.
They had so much fun exploring different customs and traditions and creating beautiful arts and crafts to celebrate this special occasion.
What a wonderful experience for our little ones!
Wishing all our families 新年快乐 (Xīnnián kuàilè) – a Happy New Year!
