Accompanied by festive music, the "Parade" ceremony begins. The dragon and lion dance team took the lead, and the children wore festive red jackets, held up the "long dragon", danced "wake up the lion", each with a look. The children who followed were some "sitting on flower boats" and some "riding donkeys"... The joyous "parade" procession makes every place you pass by full of New Year's flavor. The opening dance "Big Red Lantern Hanging High" officially kicked off the prelude to the "New Year Goods Festival". Various stalls of Chinese New Year goods were set up on the spot, which were jointly made and arranged by the staff of the picture book museum and children. Unique stalls are lined with a variety of items. The rock sugar gourd with a strong annual flavor, the popcorn with a milky smell, the sweet and refreshing fruit fishing... A variety of New Year snacks are available. The small customers look at it, the variety of delicious food makes them overwhelmed, there are budget-conscious "guests" who bargain with the "boss" from time to time, and some children keep tasting the "New Year goods" they just bought. The event site was filled with a festive atmosphere of the New Year.

Zhang Wanxin, a child, set up a small stall selling candy people in the market, and the sales situation was very impressive. The "little guy" excitedly told reporters: "Everyone likes my little sugar man, so it sells very fast, I also bought a lot of different things at other stalls, I especially like this New Year festival." ”

In the small market, little by little, the children exercised their language expression ability, adaptability, financial management ability and social practice ability in the activities.

In addition to shopping for "New Year goods", the children also participated in the dumpling making process under the guidance of their parents. Everyone gathered around, rolling the skin, making dumplings, and was very busy. With the joint efforts of children and parents, plates of dumplings with different shapes and delicious tastes are completed. In the process of activities, the children not only improved their hands-on ability, but also deeply felt the cultural charm of traditional customs.

Sun Jiamin, the operator of Xiaoshu children's picture book museum, said that because the atmosphere of the New Year has been diluted a lot in the city, it is hoped that by holding such a type of theme activity, children can deeply feel the atmosphere of the New Year. A series of activities such as street tours, lanterns and stalls are all aimed at highlighting the charm of our traditional Chinese festivals and traditional culture, as well as allowing children to enjoy more of the joy and joy brought to us by the Spring Festival.
