Hello Linda, This is one way of keeping the tradition and custom alive, I felt
that the spirit of celebrating CNY is no longer the same.
In my childhood years, Chinese New Year were such a Joyful and Happy occasion
and would like it to last forever.
I see lots of parent are now stressed out over work and having to make a living
for the family with high inflation in our country.
To them any holidays are resting and relaxing time, before going back to the
same routine.
Hopefully, by teaching them a skill, celebrating the Chinese New Year with the
kids and also giving away oranges with the lucky Ang Pow (
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Red_envelope ), will help to enhance the tradition.
Thanks, here's my wishes for ,
May the knowledge you are giving to others, will rewards you with lots of good
fortune, good luck and good health from this Golden Rabbit.

Regards,
Garie

Kids Celebrating The Chinese New Year


Garie,  Thanks for the pics, those kids are gorgeous, and they are so creative
- which of course, is what you are all about.  Happy New Year.
Take care,  Adele

Hello Adele, Reminding the kids and celebrating the Chinese New Year with what
they made, is helping them to keep the tradition and custom alive every year.
May fortune shine on you in whatever you do!

These are wonderful! Those kids really do some nice work, but I really love
these examples! I for one am cheering the golden rabbit on!

Hi Colleen, I am also a Rabbit, welcoming the Golden Rabbit. Thanks for your
comments.

Those kids are really talented.
Enjoy Life-This is not a rehearsal!

Peabody

Thanks Peabody, this is a double happiness for the kids, happiness for the kids
is to be able to create things with clay, happiness is to celebrate the Chinese
New Year and gets plenty of Ang Pow (

How nice! It seems to be a really good sign and actual rabbits are so very
charming little animals as well- I've had a couple as pets, and they are
lovely affectionate companions.

Colleen

OT Colleen- good sign rabbit

And don't forget about the lucky Rabbit's foot :)

*Hugs*
Astrid Rabbit :)

I wonder where that started, when possession of one was obviously so very
unlucky for its original owner? I will say my 2 pet bunnies seemed to have
nice lucky lives though, so maybe having 4 each might have something to it
:-)

colleen

So true, Colleen, but I don't think that just any ol' rabbit's foot is seen as
the bringer of luck. As far as I know it has to be killed/harvested/whatever you
want to call it under certain circumstances.

Maybe Fred or someone else knows more about it, since it comes from the
pre-Celtic period if I remember correctly...

*Hugs*
Astrid

Happy Chinese New Year, from this Rabbit to all other Rabbits, Tigers, Rats, Horses etc ~ in short: to everyone :)

*Hugs*
Astrid (or is it now "Sister Rabbit"? LOL) Oh, that rhymes too so it's going to be a splendid year :)


Thank You "Sister Rabbit", May the year of the Golden Rabbit, brings you lots of Carats......... in gold and diamond :-)
Regards,
Garie

Thank you "Brother Rabbit" Garie and I wish the same for you.

As long as I and my loved ones stay healthy and happy, I am/we are rich enough...although I would not decline the opportunity to win the lottery jackpot ;) There is SO much good I could do with that and since someone has to win it, it might as well be me... ;)

*Hugs*
Astrid

Your kids are always so delightful, Garie! I am always impressed with their work
but they win me over with their big smiles and those eyes that sparkle with
happiness at what they have accomplished. They look so proud.

When I see them holding their wonderful creations I think .."These kids are just
too young to make these amazing things" and then I remember that they have a
really awesome teacher!

I really got a great chuckle out of the little man with the shirt that has "Lock
up your daughters" written on it. He's a little charmer!

Happy Chinese New Year to you, your family and your kids!

Hello Michele,
Happy kids for happy chinese new year, always fun and rewarding doing clay
projects for the festival occasion, even the hardcore kids, "I only make
dinosaur and monster" will also do the rabbit to celebrate CNY :-D
To me all kids are creative, some are slow, others are fast, for the slow
learner, I will taught them the simple approached, by creating 2D clay to look
like 3D on the display.
Kids are kids, brother irritates sister, quarreling among brother over toys or
what they like to made, ultimately, " I will compliant to mummy " ;-(
At our workshop, we have many wonderful /generous parents with good sense of
humor that will make you chuckle.
Thanks Michele you are such a charmer with your words I will let them read all
the comments.
Here my CNY wishes, May the year of the Golden Rabbit brings more golden
happiness and good health to you and your family.
Regards,
Garie

Yes, it will help anyone who needs the quotes in Chinese Character, I used it as a reference on this occasion.
Hope the Golden Year of the Rabbit will brings about stability and change to this troubled World.
