The Spring Festival is the most important festival in China. Many Chinese people travel a long way home for it.
It is usually in January or February. People usually start preparing for the festival one month before it comes. We prepare delicious food and clean our homes. On the Chinese New Year’s Eve, we usually put up Spring Festival couplets. Then our family all get together and have a big dinner. After that we watch the Spring Festival Gala on TV and stay up till midnight, and then watch fireworks. On the first day of the Spring Festival, we visit our relatives and friends. We wear new clothes and get lucky money from the elders.
I like the Spring Festival a lot because I always have a good time at the Spring Festival.
