Whoa! Here comes a dancing dragon! Dad says dragons are special in China. They bring good luck in the new year.

Then acrobats spin plates round and round. I worry that one will fall! But the acrobats are amazing. They don’t drop any plates at all!

然后杂技演员们旋转盘子。 我担心会有人摔倒！ 但杂技演员很了不起。 他们根本不掉盘子！

Later Chinese lanterns glow in the night. Mom says they are beautiful. They’re my favorite thing until I see something else.
