Hey folks, Chinese New Year will be upon us next week. What can YOU do to help at home during this festive time

This week, help to clean the home – start with your own room, that should be a pleasant surprise for your parents  

You can also help to clear the garden, give all the furniture a good wipe, clean behind cupboards, wipe the windows…..there is so much your parents have to do and without your help, they will be really tired out

Some of our parents love baking and although its not the easiest thing to do, a helping hand will surely be appreciated by your mum

One or two days before the Chinese New Year, your parents, especially your mum, will probably need your help to go marketing, whether at the wet market or at the supermarket. Oh, and being cheerful about it certainly helps make the trip a better one

The New Year’s eve reunion dinner is a BIG thing and there’s LOTS to be done – it’ll be a great chance to learn some cooking and do a good deed helping your parents at the same time

Receiving Ang Pows on New Year’s Day is a wonderful thing – show your parents and elders just how much you appreciate them when you receive the ang pow. 

Having relatives is a blessing – don’t let the visitations be just an obligation, but make it a point to know your relatives and enjoy the visit to their homes

Finally, remember that all blessings come from God – set aside your giving from all that you’ve received
