Chinese Lunar New Year Card Craft

Learning about different cultures by experiencing some of their traditions and holidays is a great way to learn about a culture. Lunar New Year is one that we have tried to learn more about. Whether it is through literature, crafts, or being with friends who celebrate. In 2016, we made this fun Chinese or Lunar New Year Card Craft, I had found some adorable pencils and erasers when out shopping, and I wanted to make something that got them excited about the holiday and learning it in our homeschool. In this post, we will make this Lunar New Year Card Craft, but before we begin, please take a moment to pin this post to your crafts board.
