When it comes to the Lunar New Year, “more is more”—more red, more noise, and more fun! This curated list of printables covers everything from traditional decor to brain-teasing games.
1. DIY Hong Bao (Red Envelopes)
In Chinese tradition, red envelopes are filled with money and given to children for luck. Our printable template allows kids to color their own envelopes, fold them, and glue them together. It’s a great way to teach the spirit of giving!
2. Zodiac Animal Coloring Pages
2026 is the Year of the Horse! We have a dedicated coloring sheet for the Horse, along with the other 11 animals of the Chinese Zodiac. This is perfect for teaching kids about the legendary “Great Race” that decided the order of the zodiac.
3. Paper Lantern Cut-Outs
Red lanterns symbolize a bright future. Our printable includes a simple “cut-and-staple” design. Kids can color the intricate patterns and hang them around the house to scare away the monster Nian!
4. Dragon Mask Printable
The Dragon is a symbol of power and strength. This printable mask is designed for kids to wear during their own “Lion Dance” or “Dragon Dance” parade through the living room.
5. “Find the Gold Coin” Activity Sheet
A fun visual puzzle where kids search for hidden gold coins, oranges, and firecrackers hidden within a busy village scene. This is excellent for focus and attention to detail.
