Spring Festival

   The Spring Festival is the most important Festival in China, it’s to celebrate the lunar calendar’s New Year and there are many traditions in Spring Festival.
In the evening before the spring festival, families get together and have a big meal, dumplings are the most traditional food in north china, however, in south china many people prefer spring roll. When we finished the dinner, many people like to set off firecrackers, but it's not allowed in some big cities.
    Do you know who likes the Spring Festival very much? Of course children like the festival very much, because they can have delicious food, wear new clothes, watch excellent performance and can get some money from their parents. This money is given to children for good luck .People put New Year scrolls on the wall for good fortune .    
 The Spring Festival lasts about 15 days. People visit relatives and friends with the words “Have all your wishes ”.  People enjoy the Spring Festival, during this time they can have a good rest . 
    In conclusion, we like the Spring Festival very much.
