Chinese Tea Party Celebration
Chinese Tea Parties can be a lot
of fun and can be enjoyed by boys and girls alike. Boys and
girls will listen to Chinese stories, learn about the
Lunar Chinese calendar, make Chinese paper lanterns, learn to write Chinese numbers
from 1 to 10, and they'll make a beautiful wall hanging.
During tea time they will dress up in beautifully embroidered silk
robes fit for an Asian Prince and Princess! An elegant Tea Ceremony
will follow with a sample of delicious Chinese treats and mock green
tea, made from green Kool-Aid! Afterwards, kids will
participate and be part of the traditional
Dragon dance with authentic Chinese music for some fun,
creative movement time! A great cultural experience for all
ages!

Chinese Lanterns
Paper Lanterns are fun and colorful
and easy for kids to make. They also provide and
inexpensive way to decorate and add some color instantly.
Just hang some on the ceiling or along your wall with string or
display them on your table for a festive mood.

Chinese Calligraphy
By using black felt, watercolor
paper, decorative cardstock, red ribbon, and a craft dowel rod,
a simple yet beautiful wall hanging can be made. Kids love
learning to use the Chinese brush and learning to write with
ink. Afterwards, an authentic Chinese Marble stamp is used
as a signature like the original Chinese artists.
