The children had a blast creating these lunar new year lanterns a few weeks ago. First, we colored the pictures with crayons. Then, we used watercolor paints to paint over the whole lantern. The crayons resisted the wax on the crayons and the colors “glowed” through the paint. You will see these on our windows!
For those who celebrate Lunar New Year,
恭喜发财 [Gōng xi fā cái / Kung hei fat choi]

Wishing you health, happiness and peace in the year of the rabbit!
Love the lanterns, Ms. Loungsay! Happy Lunar New Year everyone!
