Today we are celebrating Chinese New year by making lantern with glitter and drawing with different color crayons and pens. We also made a long dragon with a scary dragon face, where all the children drew on two A2 papers, one group drew with crayons and the other with paint, and fingerpaint. We later cut it out in stripes and glued them together to a loong dragon.

We hanged it so everyone could see it.
