For some, this is a huge celebration and it’s always a time of family and great food to celebrate the new year. My mother always visits the temple and it’s something everyone looks forward to each year.

The lunar new year is celebrated in other countries, not only China such as Thailand, Vietnam, Singapore, Malaysia, Taiwan, and Hong Kong. Being able to learn about other countries and how they celebrate certain holidays and traditions really is a lot of fun. This theme is one that we love to learn more about as well.

If you’re looking for a way to combine learning with celebrating, these Chinese New Year Addition Puzzles are so much fun for the kids. Make sure to print them out and let the kids have fun. They’re going to be learning about something excited and working on math skills at the same time.

Print out the puzzles onto paper, I then like to laminate them so we can reuse them again. Cut them out and they’re ready to go. When you laminate them, they’re just going to last so much longer! This means that there are no rips and even if something gets spilled on them, they’re fine!

These puzzles go up to 11 and each number is two puzzles so that your child can see that a different set of numbers can add up to the same number.

Make certain that your child understands how to put the puzzles together and that they can easily identify the numbers as well. This three-part learning puzzle is great in how they can easily use it to learn and add in multiple different ways.

This is often what happens to us and then before we realize it, we’ve read 10 books and are scouring the house for more. For this reason, I tend to keep a lot of extra books on hand. The kids love getting new books and I love having a stack of books for them to dive into once they get done reading the first stack of books.

You can plan ahead like I do and get some of these now and have them waiting and ready once the time gets near. You can also keep some in the car for when you’re driving and traveling, too.
