CNY



 Do you celebrate the lunar new year too? 


In Singapore, we called it cny, and when we visit friends and families, we will bring even number of mandarin oranges to exchange with mainly the head of the family and say auspicious sayings to one another. 


In Singapore, young kids will also be given money in red packages called "red packets" - we called them "ang baos" (known as "red pockets" here in North America)

*why is it called "red pockets" here? 🤔 They are in packets.
