My Favorite Holiday

    My favorite holiday is the Spring Festival. It is also named the Chinese New Year. The holiday comes in January or February. It is a very important festival in Chinese culture. In fact, it's the highlight of the year. Everyone returns home for a family reunion. We have a big feast and chat about all the things that have happened in our lives. Before the holiday, we begin to get ready. We clean the house and buy a lot of things. My mother buys new clothes for each of us. Mother and Father don’t go working during the holiday. We going shopping in the day time and play cards at night. We are all very happy.
    New Year is especially fun for kids. We can enjoy fireworks or play with lantern. The most fascinating part for me is lucky money. It is a red envelope full of cash given by parents. I love Spring Festival, not only because of these things, but also there is an important reason that is most of all this is a national holiday which businesses are closed and gives families time to spend together.
