家乡的春节习俗作文（一）

百里不同风，千里不同俗。每个地方都有每个地方的风俗。

我的家乡在湖南，那里过年的习俗很有趣。在腊月二十九（除夕夜），我们一家大小围在一起吃团圆饭，我们的团圆饭可讲究了：我们吃饭一定要有三大样：鱼、鸡、肉。鱼一定要蒸着吃，在鱼上还要放大把大把的辣椒，这样象征着财源滚滚来、年年有余的好兆头。鸡一定是公鸡。肉是腊肉，我们的腊肉不像四川那里蒸着吃，而是用豆角炒着吃，这样吃特别美味，特别有嚼头。吃完饭后，我们就要进行守岁，一家人围在一起，其乐融融，说说这一年经历的酸甜苦辣。

在初一的早晨，我们像爸爸妈妈请安（拜年）说些吉利的话，这样可以获得一份橘子和一份利是，这样象征着大吉大利。然后我们会出门向别人拜年，别人会放鞭炮来迎接我们，这样表示湖南人们的热情似火好客、友好。

看，我们过春节是不是不跟你们一样呢？你们想来我们湖南过春节吗？

家乡的春节习俗作文（三）

我的家乡的春节习俗有很多很多，有大扫除、购年货、包饺子、拜年等等简直数不胜数。

我和爸爸也按照习俗去购年货。大街小巷里，买年货的人们数不胜数。小摊上，小店里的东西琳琅满目。摆满了鲜艳的衣服、有好吃的食品、以及各种各样的烟花爆竹。真是让我大饱眼福。我和爸爸又开始了疯狂大抢购，各种各样的东西被我们一扫而光，鞭炮、衣服、食品装了满满一大袋子。

我的家乡最少不了的一项习俗当然是包饺子了。每逢春节，家家户户都要包饺子。我们家当然也是不例外的啦！

除夕之夜，我和爸爸妈妈就开始包饺子啦！包饺子还需要技巧呢！我负责擀皮，我这里擀擀，那里擀擀，简直就是四不像。妈妈给我做了示范，包饺子应该均匀的擀，让它在擀面杖上转起来，这样就可以擀的圆圆的了。我按照妈妈的办法，怎么也不能把这个“淘气鬼”制服，还是擀的乱七八糟。不过经过我九九八十一次的艰苦训练，我终于把这个淘气鬼给制服了。

我们这里包饺子还要包里面钱呢！只要谁吃着带钱的饺子，就代表着他在这一年中平安无事，运气很好。谁要是吃的最多，谁就是一家之主。我们家也包了好几个钱呢！我和爸爸妈妈都想吃到钱。我为了得到拿到那几个硬币，于是抢了很多的饺子。嘿嘿！我们家里的钱竟然被我吃到了三个，把我的牙都快咯坏了！

吃过饺子之后，我们当然还要放鞭炮，放鞭炮可是我们男生最喜欢 干的事情。我们拿起一个大烟花，迅速点燃。顿时，天空中出现了五彩的烟花，美丽 极了。

我们这的春节习俗最重要的就是拜年了。每逢过新年 时，家家户户都要回老家给爷爷奶奶 磕头，给他们拜一个年，说一些祝福 的话语。然后长辈们就会给我们一些压岁钱，发一个红包。然后再与亲戚们一起吃一顿团圆饭。表达互相之间的感情。

我们家乡的春节习俗就是这样的，怎么样！你们的呢？

过年了!家家户户都在忙着贴春联，做年夜饭，放鞭炮……要做的事情太多了。而这些，都是过年的习俗。过年有那些习俗呢?通过上网搜查我了解了许多。

1、贴福字。过年时，家家户户都要贴“福”字，并且这个“福”字是倒着的，意为福到。

2、放鞭炮。过年还有一种放鞭炮的习俗，来源于“年兽”的故事。很久以前有一只“年兽”，到了除夕就到处作恶。有一年一个老人用放炮，穿红衣，贴红春联的方法驱赶走“年兽”，这才得以平静，此后这个方法就流传开来，直至今日。

3、贴对联。春联也叫门对、春贴、对联、对子、桃符等，它以工整、对偶、简洁、精巧的文字描绘时代背景，抒发美好愿望，是我国特有的文学形式。这一习俗起于宋代，在明代开始盛行。

4、贴窗花。在民间人们还喜欢在窗户上贴上各种剪纸——窗花。窗花不仅烘托了喜庆的节日气氛，也集装饰性、欣赏性和实用性于一体。剪纸在我国是一种很普及的民间艺术，千百年来深受人们的喜爱，因它大多是贴在窗户上的，所以也被称其为“窗花”。

春节是我国的传统节日，各地过年都有独特的习俗。今年寒假，我对家乡丹城过春节的习俗作了全面的观察和调查。真是不走不知情，一走开眼界。家乡过春节真是丰富多彩，按照时间顺序共有5种风俗。

祭灶：家乡的春节，一般是从祭灶揭开序幕的。民谣中“二十三糖瓜粘”指的就是每年腊月二十三的祭灶。家乡有“官三民四船家五”的说法，今年我是在阿姨家里过年的，所以在腊月二十四祭灶。阿姨一大早请来灶神纸像，又是熬糖，又是煮小豆饭……一切完毕已是傍晚，点烛，敬香，供奉等一系列程序才算结束。听阿姨说，祭灶为的是让灶神“上天言好事，下界保平安”。

扫尘：举行祭灶后，便正式地开始做迎接新年的准备。每年农历腊月二十五起到除夕，家乡的人把这段时间叫做“迎春日”，也叫“扫尘日”，扫尘就是年终大扫除。每逢春节来临，家家户户都要打扫环境，清洗各种器具。

贴春联，“福”字：每年大年三十，家家户户都纷纷贴上购买的春联，雅兴者自己铺纸泼墨挥毫，将宅子里里外外的门户装点一新，红红火火。春联贴完，家家户户都忘不了要在屋门上，墙壁上贴上大大小小的“福”字，而且是倒着贴，取“福到”的谐音，寄托着人们对新年的美好心愿。

拜年：是春节里的一项重要活动，亲朋好友，左邻右舍互相祝贺新年，到处是一派喜庆的气氛。祭祖：家乡的人过节都不会忘记去世的先人。过年也不例外。供奉食物表示心意，是我们家乡人祭祖的普遍形式。

通过这次调查，我全面了解了家乡人过春节的各种习俗。每一项活动都寄托了人们的心愿。当然，随着时代的发展，随着全面建设小康社会步伐的加快，对于春节，人们也在不断增添一些新的形式，如每年一度的春节联欢晚会，成了除夕夜的一道“大餐”。不少人还在春节期间出门旅游……这样春节过得就更丰富多彩了。然而，我想，作为一种传统节日，它所特有的民族特色，地方习俗始终不会被丢弃，如何使春节过得既有传统地方特色又充满时代气息，这将是富裕的人们的不断追求。

我的家乡在武陟，哪里有美丽的公园，有四大怀药，有着丰富的文化知识，蕴养着我们一个个祖国的花朵！

每逢过年，我们的家乡最有年味，下面接大家介绍介绍我们家乡的春节！

过年习俗：

1、年初一早上5点起床，吃饺子（年三十已包好），放鞭炮，不让拿刀、剪刀，不能说不吉利的话，而且规矩很多！

2、最重要的就是拜年了，走亲访友，把祝福声传遍大街小巷！让大家感受到过年的习俗！

3、在大年三十的下午大家都开始贴春联，有的还是家里年长的老人写的，而且很有文艺感哦！

这就是我们武陟县的春节，很有年味吧！所以我爱我的家乡！

A new year,a new start,when i stand on the edge of a new year,i cant help thinking about my plan of next year.

just as the old saying:"well began is the half of the success.”so i decide that i should be at work while the others are still relaxing,and then,at the beginning,im quicker than the others and of course i will get better result than the others.

But,what i really decide to do is that i must make good of anytime i can spare though it seems impossible. while,i will do my best to live up with what i have planned,and the result will prove it.

新的一年，新的开始，当我在新的一年的边缘立场，我不禁在想我明年的计划。

正如古人云：“好开始是成功的一半”，所以我决定，我应该是在工作，而另一些性传播疾病就会放松，然后，在开始时，我比其他人更快，我当然会得到比别人更好的结果。

但是，我真正决定做的是，我必须利用好，我可以随时备用，虽然它似乎是不可能的。虽然，我会尽我所能，用我生活已计划了，结果将证明这一点。

春节习俗英语作文- 用英语介绍春节习俗：

Chinese New Year or Spring Festival is the most important of the traditional Chinese holidays. It is sometimes called the "Lunar New Year" by English speakers. The festival traditionally begins on the first day of the first month (Chinese: 正月; pinyin: zhēng yuè) in the Chinese calendar and ends on the 15th; this day is called Lantern Festival. Chinese New Years Eve is known as chú xī. It literally means "Year-pass Eve".

Chinese New Year is the longest and most important festivity in the Lunar Calendar. The origin of Chinese New Year is itself centuries old and gains significance because of several myths and traditions. Ancient Chinese New Year is a reflection on how the people behaved and what they believed in the most.

Celebrated in areas with large populations of ethnic Chinese, Chinese New Year is considered a major holiday for the Chinese and has had influence on the new year celebrations of its geographic neighbors, as well as cultures with whom the Chinese have had extensive interaction. These include Koreans (Seollal), Tibetans and Bhutanese (Losar), Mongolians (Tsagaan Sar), Vietnamese (T?t), and formerly the Japanese before 1873 (Oshogatsu). Outside of Mainland China, Hong Kong, Macau, and Taiwan, Chinese New Year is also celebrated in countries with significant Han Chinese populations, such as Singapore, Indonesia, Laos, Malaysia, the Philippines, and Thailand. In countries such as Australia, Canada and the United States, although Chinese New Year is not an official holiday, many ethnic Chinese hold large celebrations and Australia Post, Canada Post, and the US Postal Service issues New Years themed stamps.

Within China, regional customs and traditions concerning the celebration of the Chinese new year vary widely. People will pour out their money to buy presents, decoration, material, food, and clothing. It is also the tradition that every family thoroughly cleans the house to sweep away any ill-fortune in hopes to make way for good incoming luck. Windows and doors will be decorated with red colour paper-cuts and couplets with popular themes of “happiness”, “wealth”, and “longevity”. On the Eve of Chinese New Year, supper is a feast with families. Food will include such items as pigs, ducks, chicken and sweet delicacies. The family will end the night with firecrackers. Early the next morning, children will greet their parents by wishing them a healthy and happy new year, and receive money in red paper envelopes. The Chinese New Year tradition is a great way to reconcile forgetting all grudges, and sincerely wish peace and happiness for everyone.

Although the Chinese calendar traditionally does not use continuously numbered years, outside China its years are often numbered from the reign of Huangdi. But at least three different years numbered 1 are now used by various scholars, making the year 2009 "Chinese Year" 4707, 4706, or 4646.

春节习俗英语作文- 用英语介绍春节习俗：春节正月习俗的英文介绍

The Chinese New Year celebrations are marked by visits to kin, relatives and friends, a practice known as "new-year visits" (Chinese: 拜年; pinyin: bài nián). New clothes are usually worn to signify a new year. The colour red is liberally used in all decorations. Red packets are given to juniors and children by the married and elders. See Symbolism below for more explanation.

On the days before the New Year celebration Chinese families give their home a thorough cleaning. There is a Cantonese saying "Wash away the dirt on ninyabaat" (年廿八，洗邋遢), but the practice is not usually restricted on ninyabaat (年廿八, the 28th day of month 12). It is believed the cleaning sweeps away the bad luck of the preceding year and makes their homes ready for good luck. Brooms and dust pans are put away on the first day so that luck cannot be swept away. Some people give their homes, doors and window-frames a new coat of red paint. homes are often decorated with paper cutouts of Chinese auspicious phrases and couplets. Purchasing new clothing, shoes, and receiving a hair-cut also symbolize a fresh start.

In many households where Buddhism or Taoism is prevalent, home altars and statues are cleaned thoroughly, and altars that were adorned with decorations from the previous year are also taken down and burned a week before the new year starts, and replaced with new decorations. Taoists (and Buddhists to a lesser extent) will also "send gods" (送神), an example would be burning a paper effigy of Zao Jun the Kitchen God, the recorder of family functions. This is done so that the Kitchen God can report to the Jade Emperor of the family households transgressions and good deeds. Families often offer sweet foods (such as candy) in order to "bribe" the deities into reporting good things about the family.

The biggest event of any Chinese New Years Eve is the dinner every family will have. A dish consisting of fish will appear on the tables of Chinese families. It is for display for the New Years Eve dinner. This meal is comparable to Christmas dinner in the West. In northern China, it is customary to make dumplings (jiaozi 饺子) after dinner and have it around midnight. Dumplings symbolize wealth because their shape is like a Chinese tael. By contrast, in the South, it is customary to make a new year cake (Niangao, 年糕) after dinner and send pieces of it as gifts to relatives and friends in the coming days of the new year. Niangao literally means increasingly prosperous year in year out. After the dinner, some families go to local temples, hours before the new year begins to pray for a prosperous new year by lighting the first incense of the year; however in modern practice, many households hold parties and even hold a countdown to the new lunar year. Beginning in the 1980s, the CCTV New Years Gala was broadcast four hours before the start of the New Year.

春节习俗英语作文- 用英语介绍春节习俗：First day 初一

The first day is for the welcoming of the deities of the heavens and earth, officially beginning at midnight. Many people, especially Buddhists, abstain from meat consumption on the first day because it is believed that this will ensure longevity for them. Some consider lighting fires and using knives to be bad luck on New Years Day, so all food to be consumed is cooked the day before. For Buddhists, the first day is also the birthday of Maitreya Bodhisattva (better known as the more familiar Budai Luohan), the Buddha-to-be. People also abstain from killing animals.

Most importantly, the first day of Chinese New Year is a time when families visit the oldest and most senior members of their extended family, usually their parents, grandparents or great-grandparents.

Some families may invite a lion dance troupe as a symbolic ritual to usher in the Lunar New Year as well as to evict bad spirits from the premises. Members of the family who are married also give red packets containing cash to junior members of the family, mostly children and teenagers.

While fireworks and firecrackers are traditionally very popular, some regions have banned them due to concerns over fire hazards, which have resulted in increased number of fires around New Years and challenged municipal fire departments work capacity. For this reason, various city governments (e.g., Hong Kong, and Beijing, for a number of years) issued bans over fireworks and firecrackers in certain premises of the city. As a substitute, large-scale fireworks have been launched by governments in cities like Hong Kong to offer citizens the experience.

[关于描写春节的英语作文

春节是我国一个古老的节日，也是全年最重要的一个节日，它蕴含着很多传说和习俗。

传说，在太古时期，有一种凶猛的怪兽“年”散居在深山密林中。它每隔三百六十五天窜到人群聚居的地方尝一次口鲜。人们为了驱赶年兽，年兽来到的那一天，在门前贴上红纸，张灯结彩。人们就管那一天叫春节，也就是过年。

除夕在腊月三十，在除夕的时候会扫尘，“串门”，还会得到很多的压岁钱。还要贴春联，贴窗花和倒贴“福”。这些不仅烘托了喜庆的节日气氛，也集装饰性、欣赏性和实用性于一体，将吉事祥物、美好愿望完美呈现，将节日装点得红火富丽。

到了晚上，全家团聚在一起，吃过年夜饭，看春晚，等着辞旧迎新的时刻，迎来新的一年。而且也只有在春节，全家人才能够团聚在一起，共同守候新的一年的来临，共同感受亲情友情和爱情。过了除夕就是一年的头一天，也是春节的头一天，大家在一起放爆竹。爆竹至今已有两千多年的历史。放爆竹可以创造出喜庆热闹的气氛，可以给人们带来欢愉和吉利。

在当代，人们会通过发手机短信来表达自己的祝福。字虽不多，但字里行间都把我们的祝福展现得淋漓尽致，同样让我们感受到这世间的真情与爱。在我们发祝福短信的同时，也就将人间这一份美好传播了。

春节象征着新的一年的开始，今年是龙年，也祝大家在新的一年里，身体健康万事如意！

春节的习俗可真多呀！比如放烟花就是其中的一个。

每当除夕夜来临的时候，家家户户都喜欢放烟花。烟花点燃后像火箭一样冲上天空，在空中爆炸，形成五颜六色、各种各样的形状，有彩花、大树、奔马、奶牛、银蛇……犹如烟花的海洋，非常壮观。

相传放烟花是因为在很久以前，有一只叫“年”的怪兽，见人就吃，十分可怕。后来，天神知道“年”见人就吃，就从天上下来，把“年”锁在深山里。每年除夕，天神下来把“年”放出来。人们在除夕夜把肉类食品从屋里拿出来，供给“年”吃。人们发现燃放烟花爆竹可以把“年”赶跑，就喜欢上了这一招。从此慢慢地形成了除夕夜放烟花爆竹的习俗。

春节是很重要的节日，春节的习俗还有很多，如：拜年，吃年夜饭……

每年过春节的时候，我都非常开心。除夕晚上一家人围在一起吃年夜饭，其乐融融。吃完美味大餐，有时我看电视，有时我和家人做游戏，有时我上街看人放烟花……春节里的我也是免不了俗呢！

春节到了，家家户户都忙碌起来。有的在大扫除，有的在贴对联，还有的在准备年夜饭……

先说大扫除吧，我觉得我家的大扫除很有特点。我老爸以前不干家务的。可是过年了，爸爸不得不出手。你瞧我家的地板立刻变得亮镗镗，一连几天都是干干净净的。

我以前不知人们为什么要贴对联，后来才知道为了过年喜庆，新的一年里好运才这样做。我也觉得贴对联非常好看。

麦油脂是临海过年时的特色小吃。先把面粉和湿,最后把它摊成一张张的薄饼,再把各种各样的蔬菜包在里面卷起来吃，,真好吃!

“爆竹声中一岁除”说的就是放鞭炮了。除夕晚上，我和哥哥姐姐一起放小鞭炮了。哥哥把一个划炮点燃扔出去，“啪”的一声炸了，紧接着第二个,三个也“粉身碎骨”了。我心里想:怪不得人们有这种方式吓走“年”……放鞭炮时可要注意安全哦!

春节的习俗还有很多，像做年糕，拜年，压岁钱等等，我都很喜欢。

中华民族的众多节庆中，要数春节最为盛大隆重了。下面是由语文迷为大家整理的春节习俗，欢迎大家参考。

南宁地区春节习俗

春节是南宁地区一年中最大的节日，初一零时起，家家燃放鞭炮，表示辞旧迎新。初二亲友带上礼物互访“拜年”。十五元宵节晚上闹花灯。十六县郊农村举行庙会、“抢花炮”。按壮家独特的春节习俗，还要进行挑新水、喝伶俐水、舞狮、舞鸡、舞春牛等活动。大年初一的拂晓之前，壮族的家妇就已纷纷到小河去为全家挑新水了。在挑新水时，还要捡几块与家畜相像的石头回家，并且一路走一路模仿六畜的叫声。回到家里，就把这些石头放进猪圈、牛栏，祈求六畜兴旺。然后，用新水煮新年茶给全家喝。壮家女要喝伶俐水，就是在汲新水之前，争着喝由村中公认的“伶俐嫂”捧给大家的清水，她们相信这样便可更加聪明伶俐，待嫁姑娘更是借此机会补求在新的一年里找到如意郎君。桂西一带的舞鸡、舞春牛更是别具特色。大年初一，由舞鸡的青年提着用木头、木瓜做成的两门鸡，打着锣去各家各户贺年，他们唱起吉庆幽默舞鸡歌，使主家喜笑颜开。主家从“鸡”身上拔几根鸡毛插在自家的鸡笼上，祈求六畜兴旺。舞牛更是有趣。舞牛人用系作精巧的“春牛”表演，一人在前撑着牛头，一人在后弯腰拱背甩尾巴；后面由一个手拿犁架的汉子驱赶着“春牛”，簇拥着春牛的还有敲锣打鼓的，唱春牛歌，浩浩荡荡，喜气洋洋。

桂西一些地区，世代流传的舞鸡、舞春牛活动，增添了春节的喜庆气氛。舞鸡的年青人提着用木头、木瓜做成的两只斗鸡，打着锣到村中各家各户去贺年。舞鸡歌吉庆幽默，使主家喜笑颜开。送给贺年的舞鸡者红包，从“斗鸡”身上拔几根鸡毛插在自家的鸡笼上，以祈求六畜兴旺。

舞春牛更为有趣。“春牛”是用竹片巧妙编织而成，牛头、牛角糊上绵纸，画上牛眼，牛身是一块黑布或灰布。舞牛人敲锣打鼓在村中表演，钻进布底的两人，一人在前撑牛头，一人在后弯腰拱背甩尾巴，后面跟着的是一个手拿犁架的汉子。此外，还有敲锣打鼓的，领唱春牛歌的，他们走到哪里，哪里就有歌声笑声。舞罢上村又到下村，从初一闹到元宵节。舞春牛的人们为农家带来了节日的欢乐，同时，也寄托着对农家丰收、祥和的祝愿。

打扁担过新年

“正月舂堂闭轰轰，今年到处禾黍丰。”这是广西马山、都安、上林、忻城等地壮家流传的一首古谚。唐代刘询在其《岭表录异》中曾生动地记载了舂堂的舞韵：“春堂者，以深木刻而槽，一槽两边，约排了柠，男女立以舂稻梁，敲磕槽舷，皆有遍拍，槽声若鼓，闻于数里，虽思妇之巧弄秋砧，不能比其浏亮也。”今天，代替舂竹的是农家的扁担，木板代替了大木槽，古老的舂堂以打扁担的娱乐形式焕发了生机。

从每年的除夕到正月十五，轻快悦耳的“登登打、登登打、登登打嘟打”的打扁担声，响遍了壮族山乡。打扁担是传统的自娱自乐活动，每一个壮家人都是打着堂的演员，妇女的动作轻巧优美，男子的动作刚劲有力，自娱自乐的“打着堂”，寄托着壮族人民祈望丰收的愿望。

打扁担的舞蹈形式有双人舞、四人穿花、多人穿花等各种套式。舞者多为双数。表演者手拿扁担，围在长凳或舂米槽旁，有节奏地时而敲打板凳，时而互相撞击扁担。扁担在手中运用自如，或正面、或反面、或侧面敲打，发出的声音或脆、或沉，声声相异，形成节奏明快、起伏有致的韵律。在扁担不断相击中，表演者不停地穿花转动，更使人眼花缭乱。技巧娴熟的各种动作，在声声扁担撞击声中轻松完成。

喜庆佳节的打扁担活动，更是热闹非常。场上长形的竹筒和锣鼓与之伴奏，围观的群众不时地传出唱彩声，节日气氛特别热烈。

在打扁担的人群中，你可以发现两髻斑白的老人和稚气十足的孩子，有的全家挥扁担上阵，有的母子同场打扁担，你赛我、我赛你，整个打扁担活动洋溢着欢乐的笑声。

赶圩路上，山民们腿走酸了，肩挑累了，就把担子一放，打起扁担，不一会儿疲劳便在扁担声中消失了。赶墟路上的打扁担活动即兴而起，尽兴而散。打扁担真是壮乡的一种轻巧而方便的文体活动。

“打扁担”的舞蹈语汇，具有丰富的农耕文化色彩，舞蹈造型与农耕劳作密
