First, we clean the whole house. We sweep the floors to wash away bad luck.
Next, we hang up red decorations. Red is a very lucky color. We put red paper on the doors.
Then, we put on our new clothes. Bright red clothes are the best to wear.
After that, we eat a big dinner with family. We eat long noodles for a long life. We eat sweet dumplings for a sweet year.
Last, we share red envelopes with lucky money. We wish everyone a happy new year!
