festivals, which are held on the 15th day of the eighth
lunar month, are popular family holidays in many Asian

Excerpt from
AsianWeek
(2/25/99 issue)
|
"Resources for Asian and Multicultural
Families:
The Lunar New Year is considered by many to be synonymous with the Chinese
New Year, but as FamilyCulture.com proves, this is far from the case. The site, which
offers a wealth of information, features overviews of Japanese, Korean, Vietnamese and ,
yes, Chinese New Year traditions. The folktales, foods and festivities surrounding each
are outlined for families looking to integrate tradition into their lives or for anyone
with an itch to celebrate in style.
As its title promises, this site offers an abundance of resources. Rather
than just listing traditional foods, games and crafts associated with each ethnicity, it
actually provides recipes and hand-on activities."
