Parenting Tips

學習小貼士

Question:  With the Lunar New Year approaching, how can I engage my children to immerse them in the festive ambiance?

Answer: Behind each traditional Chinese festival lies captivating legends, customs, and unique delicacies. Parents can seize quality time with their children to narrate tales about the origins and legends of the Lunar New 

Year, elucidate the significance of the reunion dinner on New Year's Eve, or relish traditional New Year dishes like Niáncài (年菜) or Niángāo (年糕) together. Additionally, parents can instruct children on giving New Year greetings or uttering auspicious phrases. For parents residing abroad, involving children in Chinese New Year celebrations becomes particularly significant, allowing them to fully embrace the celebratory atmosphere. SCCCA & ICS have also arranged a range of festive activities. Parents are encouraged to bring their children to participate and immerse themselves in the vibrant New Year atmosphere.

問: 農曆新年將要到了，我可以帶孩子做些什麼, 讓他們感受過年的氣氛?

答: 每個中國傳統節日背後都有一些有趣的傳說故事、習俗，或是吃一些特別的食物。爸爸媽媽可以利用親子時間，講述年的由來和傳說，和除夕團圓的意義, 或一起吃年菜或年糕、學習拜年或說幾句吉祥話。海外的父母, 更可以帶孩子參與華人的慶祝活動,耳濡目染的感受年節。南海岸中華文化中心與爾灣中文學校也準備了多項慶祝活動，歡迎爸爸、媽媽帶著孩子一同參與，體驗新年的熱鬧。
