Chinese Year 2010




This year’s chinese new year hamper celebration begins on february 14th, then lasts for 14 days. 2010 is the year of the tiger. Since the first day of the chinese new year begins on valentine’s day this year, it gives you double the reason to celebrate! The celebration ends on the 15th day with a lantern festival .
Last year i shared quite a bit of information about celebrating the chinese new year, from the customs to the food.This year i want to talk about a few of those same things, and add a few more ideas for your chinese new year celebration.
* the food is a very important part of the chinese new year hamper celebration. It’s also important that the food consumed is whole food, and many of the meals are symbolic for good fortune, happiness, or prosperity.
* during the lantern festival every place is decorated with paper lanterns much like our houses are decorated with christmas lights during the holiday season.


Here is a customary chinese new year dragon dance, the dragon dance is performed during the chinese new year to show gratitude to the dragon for good fortune.
