It was a festive morning at Mr. Sneaky Pant's preschool today.  The Banana and I attended a parade, where three long dragons wound themselves around the room.  The dragon heads were boxes painted by the students, and behind each dragon head tromped many dragon feet under a long piece of material painted by the kids.  The kids were very excited, and ended the parade with a stomp over stripes of bubble wrap to create "banging fireworks."  We then sat down to a special reception of fortune cookies at tables decorated with paper lanterns.  Each student took home some lucky money, a penny sealed in a bright red envelope with Chinese writing on the front.
