Spring Festival is our Chinese people's festival. There are different names for each year. We call it the year of Monkey, the year of Horse…and this year is the year of Pig.
Before Spring Festival, people are busy shopping and cleaning. On Chinese New Year's Eve, there is a big family dinner. After dinner, all the family stay up late(守夜) to welcome the new year. In the middle of the night, we have some dumplings. On Chinese New Year's Day, people wear new clothes to visit their relatives and say "Happy Chinese New Year" to each other.
