Seollal (설날) – Korean New Year

새해 복 많이 받으세요! Lunar New Year (설날 – Seollal) is just around the corner and we wanted to share a few activities for you and your little one to enjoy in addition to your family’s traditional celebrations!

But first… let’s talk about the Lunar Zodiac!

2020 is the year of the Rat! According to the Lunar Zodiac signs, the year of the Rat is a great year for starting new things and getting a fresh start. This may be a good time to try something new, set new goals, and really put yourself out there! If you’ve been thinking about learning a new language, starting a new job or even starting your own business – maybe this is your year to do it! It is said that those born under this sign are charming and ambitious, but also logical and realist. Were you born in the year of the Rat?
