Qingming Festival is a special time for showing respect, remembering ancestors, and sharing memories from the past. In 2023 Qingming falls on April 5th. Qingming is one of the major holidays in countries with large Chinese ethnic makeup. The spring blossoms are perfect for outdoor activities. So Chinese families go to where their ancestors and loved ones are buried to pay respects. They may take a relaxed family field trip, and tell stories about grandparents or great-grandparents to their children.
If you would like to share Qingming Festival with young family members, check out these online Chinese/English bilingual children’s books at beginner and bridge levels.
