Happy Chinese New Year, mamas, or as my Chinese relatives say: Kung Hei Fat Choi. I'm doing a little extra celebrating this year because it's the Year of the Dragon, which just so happens to be my own Zodiac sign.
For those of you with babies being born this year, or kids who just want to get into the spirit, I've rounded up a bunch of cool gifts, crafts, books, and cards to help you and your kids celebrate The Year of the Dragon right along with me.
I'm a huge fan of Tree by Kerri Lee, whose Chinese Zodiac birth year boxes are always a lovely way to honor a new little dragon into the world. They also come as keepsake blocks which you can have personalized with a name and birthdate.
The Zodiac Zoo dragon onesies come wrapped in a Chinese take-out box. Fab baby gift! Fortune cookies not included.
Our friends at Minted have a wonderful selection of Chinese New Year cards, which will help your ring in the New Year and alleviate any guilt you might have for not sending your holiday cards. A two-fer! We also love the Dragon Dance Holiday Card shown at top, from Etsy's Fushan 159.
Here's a fun Chinese New Year craft to do with the kiddos. Just print, fold and play.
And teach your kiddos about Chinese culture with Oliver Chin and Jennifer Wood's book "Year of the Dragon," one in a collection of Chinese Zodiac books that we're huge fans of.
How will you be celebrating the Chinese New Year today, mamas?
