春节的由来
中国古时候有一种叫“年”的怪兽，头长尖角，凶猛异常。“年”兽长年深居海底，每到除夕，爬上岸,吞食牲畜,伤害人命。因此,每到除夕这天,村村寨寨的人们扶老携幼逃往深山,以躲避“年”的伤害。
今年的除夕，象亲们都忙着收拾东西逃往深山，这时候村东头来了一个白发老人对一户老婆婆说只要让他在她家住一晚，他定能将”年”兽驱走.众人不信，老婆婆劝其还是上山躲避的好，老人坚持留下，众人见劝他不住，便纷纷上山躲避去了.
当”年”兽象往年一样准备闯进村肆虐的时候，突然传来白发老人然响的爆竹声，”年”兽混身颤栗，再也不敢向前凑了，原来”年”兽最怕红色，火光和炸响.这时大门大开，只见院内一位身披红袍的老人哈哈大笑，”年”兽大惊失色，仓惶而逃.
第二天，当人们从深山会到村里时，发现村里安然无恙，这才恍然大悟，原来白发老人是帮助大家驱逐”年”兽的神仙，人们同时还发现了白发老人驱逐”年”兽的三件法宝.从此，每年的除夕，家家都贴红对联，燃放爆竹，户户灯火通明，守更待岁.这风俗越传越广，成了中国民间最隆重的传统节日”过年”.
舞龙舞狮的寓意是：可以带来好运，每次只要到了春节或者一些庆典的活动，总是会用舞狮来庆祝。舞狮象征着威勇和吉祥，在中国传统的习俗中，认为舞狮有驱魔的效果，希望用舞狮来镇压，表示自己的威武。
舞龙舞狮的象征是：人们在喜庆日子里用舞师龙来祈祷狮子的保佑。
人们相信狮子是祥瑞之兽，舞狮能够带来好运，所以每逢春节或其它一些庆典活动，都会在阵阵锣鼓鞭炮声中，舞狮助庆祈求吉利。
十五节以上的龙就比较笨重，不宜舞动，主要是用来观赏，这种龙特别讲究装潢,具有很高的工艺价值。还有一种“火龙”,用竹篾编成圆筒,形成笼子,糊上透明、漂亮的龙衣,内燃十分壮观。
元日
元日爆竹声中一岁除，春风送暖入屠苏。
千门万户曈曈日，总把新桃换旧符。

At that time, children were the happiest because they could get many red packets from their parents,grandparents, uncles, aunts and so on. The last day of the Chinese New Year is another festival.
在这个节日里，所有的家人都在除夕夜聚在一起吃一顿大餐。同时，每个人都互相庆祝着。在一年的第一个清晨，人们在门上贴上福或挂上对联。一些房子的窗户粘上红色的剪纸上。中国新年会持续十五天。所以在这十五天里，我们总是登门拜访我们的亲戚。那时，孩子们最快乐，因为他们可以从父母、祖父母、叔叔、阿姨还有其他亲戚那里得到很多红包。春节的最后一天是另一个节日。
It is called the Lantern Festival. Then the Chinese New Year comes to an end.
