Chinese New Year

Puzzle provided by Highlights

When you see all the Fai Chun and festive decorations, you know it’s time for Lunar New Year celebrations! There are many traditions and customs in the Lunar New Year. For example, prior to the Chinese New Year, people would clean up the entire house, symbolising a fresh start of the new year. Yet, people tend not to clean the house on the New Year’s Day as they don’t want to ‘sweep away’ any luck and blessings. There are plenty of other interesting customs about the Lunar New Year. Maybe you have your own too!

Challenge!

Can you find the objects hidden in the big picture?
