Description: Why the house is cleaned first, why everything is red, what is in the envelopes and why oranges are lucky. A1-A2, just over a minute.

Why homes are cleaned from top to bottom before the festival, why red and orange are everywhere, what goes into the red envelopes, and why oranges count as lucky food.

A beginner needs the shape of a festival before its details, and this gives the shape in just over a minute: the house cleaned from top to bottom, the red and orange decorations that keep bad luck out, money in red envelopes, oranges on the table, good-luck messages on the walls.

Every custom is given its reason, which is what turns a list of pictures into something a student can retell. A1-A2, short enough for a warm-up, and it sits naturally before the longer Chinese New Year videos on the site.
