Some people send up sky lanterns with wishes on them.
These mini hot air balloons look beautiful flying through the night sky. You can learn how to make your own sky lantern here.
But be careful! Any project involving fire can be dangerous.
There’s a much more dangerous way to celebrate the festival in Yanshui in southern Taiwan.
People from all over the world go there to have fireworks shot at them. Everyone covers their bodies with many layers and wears motorcycle helmets with masks as thousands of fireworks are shot out from large “beehives”. The fireworks are said to scare away bad luck and illness.
However you choose to celebrate, we wish you and your family good fortune in the new year.
May all your wishes come true!
