Chinese New Year is such a wonderful holiday and I’m so glad it’s becoming more well known in the US. We desperately need a mid winter celebration for the lingering cold days (yes there’s Valentine’s Day but that’s more for couples and less about togetherness). I love Chinese culture and I hope to respectfully integrate this into my family’s life. Not a bastardization like cinco de mayo, but a chance to learn and enjoy.

In Malaysia, the Hokkien community celebrate the 9th day. 拜天公. Sugarcane is tied to house gates. On some years, there is more firecracker action when midnight strikes on 年初九 than 大年初一.

Evening of 8th is Pai Thi Kong/Bai Tian Gong, believed to be the ‘survival day’ of Minnan Hokkiens. Many call it Hokkien new year. On 15th day, we call it tsap goh meh, Old families of Straits Chinese people celebrate valentines day, where the young nyonya (creole chinese women) allowed to be out in the crowd. tangerines with names written were thrown into the river or the shores for young lucky men to retrieve. The Peranakans also eat sweet soup called Pengat and sing Dondang Sayang and dance Ronggeng. On that same day, In Singkawang, Kalimantan, the Hakkas would hold procession of spirit mediums. Tainan, Taiwan would parade out deities in sedan chairs from morning til night.

We Koreans celebrate Seollal with rice cake soup. We also perform Saebae ( honoring and bowing to parents and older relatives). We wear new clothes and play Yut nori.

Congratulations on your tiger baby! Love your channel! Great Chinese learning resources for my students!

My partner and in-laws are Chinese. Celebrations are becoming more muted year by year due to the distance of the family (we moved from US to Canada) and COVID. However, it's the only part of the year I don't have to do cleaning as my partner insists on doing it all. Yay.

I don’t celebrate Chinese New Year but I find it fascinating! It would be cool to some what follow a long and take some lessons from such a wonderful holiday.
