Chinese Lunar New Year Coloring Pages (Free Printables)
Celebrate the vibrant traditions of the Chinese Lunar New Year with a collection of free printable coloring pages!
As a kid who used to enjoy celebrating this every year in Hawaii I really enjoyed putting this collection together.
It is one of the very few cultural traditions I miss as it’s obviously not very big here in the midwest! But I hope to continue it on my own with my kids with simple pleasures like these coloring pages.
