I have done this before, getting prepared with ideas for the next Chinese New Year. 2014 is the Year of the Horse. I have many links below for general Chinese New Year crafts and ideas plus some specific to the Horse. Happy Planning!
Chinese New Year crafts, hopefully most of these links will be updated with the horse theme by next year:
Activity Village;
The Teacher's Corner;
DLTK's Crafts;
First School Crafts;
Brooklyn Kids Museum (very lengthy, starts on page 8 with defintions and Teachers aids);
Teacher's Lesson at Teacher's Link;
The Crafty Crow (I like the finger print kumquats) and the Paper Cup flying Dragon;
Lightly Enchanted Blog has lots of crafts including the gold fish kite and homemade red envelops;
And the all important PINTEREST! Lots of great ideas!
