Chinese New Year this year is on February 10th, 2013. This important traditional Chinese holiday lasts for 15 days! And each day has different festivities and customs depending on where you are from. We have combined these traditions and put them into a parody of "12 Days of Christmas", called "15 Days of Chinese New Year". Have a Happy and Prosperous Chinese New Year!
