The Kid's Domain presents a collection of Internet resources about the Chinese New Year. The date of the Chinese New Year is determined by the lunar calendar rather than the Western calendar, so the date of the holiday varies from late January to early February. The Chinese Lunar Calendar names each cycle of twelve years after an animal. The links include information about Chinese zodiac signs, Chinese folk and fairy tales, paper cutting patterns, Chinese New Year cards, and more.

It does not always come on the same date each year, but it is always in January or February. Readers of this volume will learn the meaning behind the holiday as well as the costumes, decorations, food, and other customs, such as the dragon parade, associated with it. This simple yet engaging book also provides instructions on how to make ya sui qian, or the red envelopes the Chinese use for gifts of money, as well as a recipe for fried rice.
