Kung Hei Fat Choi!

I love Aidan to learn about other Cultures and Traditions and as Chinese New Year fell on a Sunday it gave us the perfect opportunity to some crafts, activities and of course some eating!!

Saturday night we hung lettuce outside for the Dragon to munch on his visit and he managed to leave Aidan a red and Gold pouch of coins under his pillow without even waking him! ;-)
