Topic 21: My Favorite Holiday

Hi, I'm Linh. I'd like to tell you about my favorite holiday. It's Vietnamese Lunar New Year. It's on the first day of the month of the Vietnamese lunar calendar. S I spend all day with my family. We clean the house to sweep away bad luck. We decorate the house with red ribbons, balloons, and red parallels. My dad buys Peach blossom tree and puts it in front of the door. I dress new beautiful traditional long dress which my mom bought to me is called 'ao dai'. My parents give me a red envelope with money inside for good luck. We go to our grandparents' house and our relatives' houses to give some best wishes for them for whole year. Then the elders give children lucky money for good luck. After that, we eat a big meal with pork, chicken, vegetables and fruit and many sweets. A I like Vietnamese Lunar New Year because I can have fun and play games all day with my whole family!
