Project- the story of Nian (version 1) This is one version of the story of Nian.

Project- the story of Nian (version 2) (This is another version of Nian, please choose whichever you prefer for your child to watch)

Now you have watched the story of Nian and understand why people make loud noises (with drums and fireworks) and why red is a lucky colour, you can choose to make a Chinese Dragon or a Chinese Rattle Drum by following the videos below.

Project- Chinese New Year (option 1- making a dragon) (Please be aware that this was not recorded this year so Chinese New Year is not on Thursday like Katie says, it is in fact on Friday).

Project- Chinese New Year (option 2- making a Chinese Rattle Drum) (Please be aware that this was not recorded this year so this year is not the year of the dog, it is, in fact, the year of the Ox).

Story time Dragons in the city
