1st Grade Lunar New Year Educational Resources

Shed some "light" on the Chinese culture while brightening up your home. Teach your child the Chinese character for good luck with this lantern craft.

Every day can be Chinese New Year with a dancing dragon that your child can make at home.

In this activity, your child will create a red envelope that can be filled with money to spread good will and ward off evil spirits in the New Year.

Make this dragon relief with your first grader to celebrate Asian Pacific American Heritage Month and teach her about an important part of Chinese culture.

Make a paper plate puppet that'll help your child imagine what it's like to be in a performance of the dragon dance.
