What traditional gifts can be given to relatives during the Lantern Festival?
QuestionerQuestioner:01-26 10:00
I went back to my hometown for the Spring Festival this year, and planned to visit my relatives on the Lantern Festival. I had to prepare Lantern Festival gifts for them in advance. I have lived in the city for many years and I don’t remember many of the old rules. I wonder what traditional gifts I can give to my relatives on the Lantern Festival?
Best answer

The Lantern Festival is the fifteenth day of the first lunar month every year, when the moon is full. Celebrating the Lantern Festival symbolizes family reunion and the return of spring. Traditional gifts for the Lantern Festival include glutinous rice balls, red lanterns, Chinese knots, and other things that symbolize happiness and reunion.

  • It depends on the age group of the person you are giving gifts to. The elderly tend to focus on nutritional supplements, the young and middle-aged can give meat, eggs and fruits, and children can give red lanterns or toys.
