7 classic Chinese New Year songs to learn and sing along as a family

A great way to learn a language is through singing. As a family, we listen, sing and dance to music daily. For Chinese New Year, we have been listening to these simple yet classic Chinese New Year songs. These are the same songs that I grew up listening to as a child!

I have tried to find videos that comes with Chinese lyrics, so you can have a happy Chinese New Year karaoke time! I have also written down the Chinese lyrics with pinyin.

Happy New Year, and Best Wishes for the New Lunar Year!
