小满的习俗汇总【实用20篇】

在寒假里，那五花八门的节日习俗，总是让人耳目一新。

过年的气氛是从何时浓起来的呢？或许从“腊八”那天就已经开始了。腊月初八，家家户户都找齐那八样食材，在锅里煮。我们家腊八粥虽然模样不怎么出众，可那粥的味道绝不亚于宫廷御膳之味。

腊月里的事呀，可多着呢！腊月初，那年味儿才刚刚有些“味儿”，腊月中旬的年味儿，才够“味”。

今年，我家是在腊月二十磨了豆腐，二十一才“动油锅”——炸年货。到了腊月二十三，家里又热闹了一阵——蒸包子。到了腊月二十八，奶奶又将腌过的年货放进锅煮，留着二十九中午吃。

到了“年三十”，从早上起便能听见炮仗声。奶奶说，这就是“过年”。我们家是中午过的年，一家人坐在一起，吃了顿团圆饭。在吃饭之前，我们家还有个习俗——祭祖。祭祖宗的菜在祭祖之前是不能吃的，而且家里人还得在堂屋门前烧纸钱、磕头，希望老祖宗能够保佑全家在来年平平安安，也可寄自己的心愿于此。到了三十晚上，我们这一带还有个别样的风俗——装“红包”，此“红包”非彼红包，这是在一个红袋子里装上些吃的，如“苹果”“大糕”，寓意平平安安，步步高，然后再在里头装上压岁钱，这就是咱这儿的红包。到了晚上，初一的凌晨零点，家家户户都得放烟花、鞭炮，来迎新年。三十这天还有件事可不能忘了——贴春联。过完年后，家家的春联也都“上门”了。

初一早上，晚辈得在家里先给家里的长辈拜了年，再出门去拜年。拜年倒也有个忌讳的事——下午拜年，所以一般拜年都是在上午。初三早上还得放炮仗，干什么呢？迎灶王爷。初五早上还得迎财神爷。有些人家还会买灶王爷的图像贴在家里，希望来年家里能够财运兴旺。

若再论远点儿，那就是正月十五度元宵了。元宵节，我们家最重要的一个习俗不是吃元宵，也不是看花灯，而是到祖宗的坟上去送灯。送的这灯，都是用四根细竹棍，一个塑料袋和一支蜡烛做成的，每到一个坟上，都得放一个炮仗，然后烧点纸钱，放上一盏灯。到了晚上，那林子里、山上也都是灯火通明。

时代在变化，而这些习俗却一直在延续……

吃年夜饭，是春节家家户户最热闹愉快的时候。大年夜。丰盛的年菜摆满一桌，阖家团聚，围坐桌旁，共吃团圆饭，心头的充实感真是难以言喻。人们既是享受满桌的佳肴盛馔，也是享受那份快乐的气氛，桌上有大菜、冷盆、热炒、点心，一般少不了两样东西，一是火锅。一是鱼。火锅沸煮，热气腾腾，温馨撩人，说明红红火火；“鱼”和“余”谐音，是象征“吉庆有余”，也喻示“年年有余”。还有萝卜俗称菜头，祝愿有好彩头；龙虾、爆鱼等煎炸食物，预祝家运兴旺如“烈火烹油”。最后多为一道甜食，祝福往后的日子甜甜蜜蜜，这天，即使不会喝酒的，也多少喝一点。

年夜饭的名堂很多，南北各地不同，有饺子、馄饨、长面、元宵等，而且各有讲究。北方人过年习惯吃饺子，是取新旧交替“更岁交子”的意思。又因为白面饺子形状像银元宝，一盆盆端上桌象征着“新年大发财，元宝滚进来”之意。有的包饺子时，还把几枚沸水消毒后的硬币包进去，说是谁先吃着了，就能多挣钱。吃饺子的习俗，是从汉朝传下来的。相传，医圣张仲景在寒冬腊月，看到穷人的耳朵被冻烂了，便制作了一种“祛寒娇耳汤”给穷人治冻伤。他用羊肉、辣椒和一些祛寒温热的药材，用面皮包成耳朵样子的“娇耳”，下锅煮熟，分给穷人吃，人们吃后，觉得浑身变暖，两耳发热。以后，人们仿效着做，一直流传到今天。新年吃馄饨，是取其开初之意。传说世界生成以前是

混沌状态，盘古开天辟地，才有了宇宙四方，长面，也叫长寿面。新年吃面，是预祝寿长百年。

包粽子，是端午节的一个传统风俗习惯。关于包粽子的由来，较为流行的说法是为了纪念我国古代伟大的爱国诗人屈原。相传公元前278年农历五月初五，屈原投入汩罗江殉难后，楚国百姓每年五月初五这天，大家都驶着船把饭装到逐筒里，投到江中祭奠屈原。到了东汉光武帝刘秀建武年间，长沙有一个名叫欧回的人，说他白天见到一个自称是三闾大夫屈原的人对他说：“你们每年祭我的竹筒米都被蛟龙吞了。今后你们可以用艾叶塞在竹筒口上，再用五色丝线捆牢，因为蛟龙最怕这两样东西。”说完人便不见了。后来，欧回把此事告诉大家照办。据说，人们包粽子，就是从这时开始的。

此外，在我国云南傣族群众中还流传着端午节包粽子由来的另一个传说。

相传很久以前，有一对傣族男女青年，从小一起长大，青梅竹马，深深相爱。可双方家长硬是不赞成这门亲事。五月端午这天，他们便一块跳进了老丙大龙潭。为了纪念这对青年，每年五月初五，傣族人们便聚集在元阳县乌河湾坝老丙大龙潭边，让青年们自己选择理想的情人。青年男女围成一个大圆圈，唱歌跳舞。跳完歌舞后，小伙子将事先包好的粽子丢给看中的姑娘。如果姑娘对小伙子有意，则拾起粽子。然后手拉手，分散到绿树下，去倾诉衷情。

一路上，看着车窗外面美丽的景色，我很开心。

我们经过了杭州湾大桥。大桥很壮观，它跨越杭州湾，长约三十多公里。

第二天上午下雨，我们吃完早饭，就在宾馆里玩，下午，雨停了。我和爸爸、妈妈，还有爸爸的同事一家去摘杨梅。我们来到一座小山上，山上长着茂密的杨梅树，枝头上挂满了杨梅。由于刚下过雨，路很滑，我们踩着泥慢慢地来到杨梅树下，开始采杨梅。爸爸提着篮子，我和妈妈一颗一颗地把杨梅摘下来放到篮子里。杨梅有红色的、粉色的和青色的。我们要挑红色的摘，因为红色的杨梅最甜。

第三天我们回到了上海。回到家，吃着自己摘的杨梅，觉得很甜。

说到我家乡春节习俗，那可真多啊！让我给你细细道来。

贴春联：

春联也叫门对，春贴、对联、对子、桃符，等等。每逢春节无论是城市还是农村，家家户户都要精选一副大红春联贴与门上，为节日添加喜庆气氛。

贴福字

在贴春联同时，大家要在屋门上、墙壁上，门楣上贴大大小小“福”字。

拜年：

人们穿上最漂亮衣服，扮整整齐齐，出门走亲访友，相互拜年，恭祝来年大吉大利。

我最喜欢就是除夕了。

因为我喜欢听那个传说，我给大家讲讲吧！

相传在远古时候，我们祖先曾遭受一种最凶猛野兽威胁。这种猛兽叫"年"，它捕百兽为食，到了冬天，山中食物缺乏时，还会闯入村庄，猎食人和牲畜，百姓惶惶不可终日。人和"年"斗争了很多年，人们发现，年怕三种东西，红颜色、火光、响声。于是在冬天人们在自家门上挂上红颜色桃木板，门口烧火堆，夜里通宵不睡，敲敲打打。这天夜里，"年"闯进村庄，见到家家有红色和火光，听见震天响声，吓得跑回深山，再也不敢出来。夜过去了，人们互相祝贺道喜，大家张灯结彩，饮酒摆宴，庆祝胜利。

怎么样，看了我们这儿习俗，才知道各地习俗没多大差别吧！

苗族花山节

农历正月初二至初七，是云南屏边、蒙自、河口等地苗族人民一年一度的“踩花山”节。每到这个时候，来自各村各寨的苗族人民，潮水般地从四面八方几个苗村寨之间的开阔坡地上。“花杆”是踩花山节的重要标志，一般选择挺直高大的青松或柏树，扎以鲜花，彩旗。定花村的人(又称花杆头)是大家公认的“好心肠的人”。这人必须在节日的第一个早晨，趁太阳出山以前把花杆竖好。

“踩花山”这天，首先由“花杆头”向前参加“踩花山”的人敬酒，祝福，随后宣布“踩花山”节开始。这时，花山场内外锣鼓齐鸣，鞭炮声，铜炮枪声此起彼伏，鲜花、朋旗迎风招展，各种欢庆活动先后开始进行。青年男女有的对唱山歌，有的跳三步舞、蹬脚舞，有的跳狮子舞，还有的斗牛，整个花山场上一片欢腾。

滇东北和滇南一带苗族，每年农历六月六日过“踩花山节”。传说古时苗族战败流落异乡，想起祖先东逃西散的苦，伤心落泪。一年六月初六，祖先显灵，劝他们不要太难过，应该到高山顶上吹芦笙、唱歌跳舞给我们看。说完天上落下一朵花，挂在一棵树上。大家围着这棵树歌舞，吹芦笙，这年的庄稼长得特别好。从此后，每年六月六，苗家都要穿上节日盛装，到高山上栽一棵花树，举行跳芦笙舞、斗牛、跳狮子舞、爬花杆等活动。其中，引人注目的是爬花杆，谁爬得高，就把一个猪头和好酒奖给谁。

这就是苗族热闹的花山节。

Children in costumes race from house to house asking for treats. A carved pumpkin, called a jack-o-lantern, grins from a porch as the children pass. According to legend, jack-o-lanterns protect people in their homes from ghostly spirits.

Its all part of the fun on Halloween! The roots of Halloween stretch back thousands of years and borrow customs from several parts of the world.

Halloween is a holiday celebrated on October 31. By tradition, Halloween begins after sunset. Long ago, people believed that witches gathered together and ghosts roamed the world on Halloween. Today, most people no longer believe in ghosts and witches. But these supernatural beings are still a part of Halloween.

The colors black and orange are also a part of Halloween. Black is a symbol for night and orange is the color of pumpkins. A jack-o-lantern is a hollowed-out pumpkin with a face carved on one side. Candles are usually placed inside, giving the face a spooky glow.

Dressing in masks and costumes is a popular Halloween activity. Costumes can be traditional and scary, such as a witchs pointy hat and black gown. Costumes may also have a modern flavor. Many children dress up as movie characters or a favorite superhero.

But Halloween is not just for children. Many adults enjoy showing off their costumes at Halloween parties!

Once in costume, children go from house to house saying Trick or treat! In the past, children might play a trick on people who did not give treats. They might pelt houses with eggs or old tomatoes, or play other pranks. Today, childrens cries of Trick or treat! are usually rewarded with candy.

One of the oldest Halloween traditions comes from the ancient Celts, who lived in western and central Europe long ago. The Celts celebrated a holiday

y called Sa amhain on October 31. After sunset that day, people believed that spirits of the dead would rise and walk the earth. The Celts made offerings of food and drink to keep the spirits away.

Beginning about 2,000 years ago, the Roman Empire conquered many Celtic peoples. But Celtic traditions, including Samhain, remained strong in areas such as Ireland and Scotland, even after the Roman conquest.

The Roman Catholic Church tried to replace Samhain in 835 with All Saints Day, a day to honor saints of the Church. The eve of All Saints Day is October 31. It is called Allhallows or Hallowmas by the Church.

Halloween first came to America with early settlers from Celtic areas in Europe, such as Ireland and Scotland. But other American settlers with strict religious beliefs, including the Puritans from England, rejected Halloween. The arrival of many Irish immigrants during the 1800s helped spread Halloweens popularity.

But by the late 1800s, fewer people believed in ancient superstitions of ghosts and witches. Halloween became more a holiday for children to receive treats and dress in costume.

在我的老家——安徽省苏州市灵璧县，有一个很特别的新年习俗，那就是挂钟馗像。

钟馗画像，第一眼看去便让人感到不同凡响。画面上的钟馗身材魁梧，相貌凶猛。一袭宽大的红色衣袍，遮不住腆胸叠肚。短筒朝靴，显得风尘仆仆。他一手提剑，一手拎着一只小鬼，仿佛立刻就要将小鬼斩成两半。整幅画惟妙惟肖。

说到这儿，相信大家已经知道人们为何要挂钟馗画像了吧！那就是“避邪打鬼”。

挂钟馗画像始于很久以前。我的老家那儿最初都是在春节除夕之时将画像挂在门上或正堂中，但到后来，逐渐演变成了端午节才有的习俗。端午节那天，人们庄重地挂上钟馗像，焚香礼拜，祈求驱邪赐福。小时看到门上的钟馗画像时，当时我真的是“余年幼，方出神，望着画中的‘怪叔叔’，不觉讶然惊恐”。直到近来，我才真正知道钟馗背后的故事。

相传，钟馗为灵璧人，长相相貌丑陋，但聪明伶俐，读书过目不忘，作文篇篇锦绣。大比之年，唐明皇开科取士，钟馗的三篇文章字字珠玑，行行生辉。殿试时，只要明皇看中，就会稳中状元。没想到，唐明皇见钟馗相貌丑陋，竟以貌取人，把钟馗的名字划到十名以外。状元没得中，钟馗一气之下撞墙而死。后来，在唐明皇的一个梦中，钟馗的灵魂游到皇宫，一把抓住他，质问他为何以貌取人。唐明皇惊恐万分，只好封钟馗在阴间当辟邪镇妖将军，答应钟馗在他的画像上写下“辟邪镇妖将军”，并将画像送回钟馗的故乡。梦醒后，唐明皇令人呈上钟馗的试卷，仔细一看，钟馗的文章果然极佳，并提出了不上治国安邦之策。唐明皇看罢，不由得感到惋惜，于是立即按梦中所说的那样，令人一一照办。

画像送到灵璧后，当地人处于的辟邪镇妖心愿，便开始在节日里把钟馗画像张贴在门上或正堂中，而且据说辟邪镇妖的效果特别好。于是经过代代相传，节日挂钟馗像已经成了灵璧与众不同的习俗。灵璧也产生了很多画钟馗像的画家高手，每逢节日画像便供不应求。1915年，灵璧画家翟光远画的钟馗像还曾在巴拿马国际博览会中获得金奖，给钟馗画像带来了国际性的声誉。

听了钟馗的传说，每当我经过钟馗的画像，望着这位怀才不遇的“辟邪镇妖将军”，总是肃然起敬。虽然，这只是一个民间的传说，但从传说中，却能看到“挂钟馗像”这一习俗的文化底蕴。

从“小年夜”到除夕，春节踏着农历12月24日零时的钟声，走入桂林的城乡。这天是桂林人的“小年夜”，也就是“过小年”。过小年这天，人们宰狗、杀鸭，庆贺春节来临。这天的爆竹声，带着人们送灶王爷“上天言好事”的心愿噼哩啪啦地炸响，声传高宇。人们认为灶神是一家之主，一家的善恶功过祸福都由它掌管，所以每年将尽，都要送灶神上天向玉帝奏明，为全家降福免灾。祭灶的仪式多由家里的长辈去办，他们将糖果放在灶头祭祀灶神，祈求灶神“上天言好事，下凡降吉祥”。用糖果祭灶神，目的是让糖“粘住”灶神的嘴巴，让他甜甜的嘴巴尽说好话。除夕夜幕降临后，再放爆竹接灶王爷下凡。这是桂林“过小年”的古俗，现在即便是鸣放鞭炮，也仅是古俗遗存的仪式罢了。

从腊月二十四到三十，人们忙着置办年货，打扫居室内外，以干干净净迎接新年。过节的传统食品种类繁多，且寓有美好的愿望：腊月二十九蒸年糕，年糕有甜、有成、有荤、有素，吃了年糕（高），新的一年生活、工作蒸蒸日上，步步高升。

除夕的晚餐，人们喜欢阖家团聚，菜肴中必有“圆子”、“欢喜”，取其团团圆圆，欢欢喜喜之意。这个夜晚，万人空巷，都在家中守岁。守岁时，要把火盆的炭火烧得红红火火，以象征生活岁岁兴旺。当零时一到，老老少少喜气盈盈，以爆竹声声迎接新年。这喜炮声不绝于耳，此起彼伏，直到更深夜静，人们仍无睡意，炉火依然旺着，就是要去休息，也依然不会忘记把火盆的火偎好，留下火种，等明天一早燃上一盆好火。新年的火种犹如人的生命，它是新年财旺、家旺的好兆头。人们对火的感情如此深厚，或许是因为火给人类带来了文明、带来了温暖吧。爱火就如同热爱自己的生命，在新年尤其如此。

转眼又到了中国最重大的节日，春节，通常在这个时候，小孩子最高兴，因为有红包拿，当然，每个地方都有不同的春节习俗，今天，我就来介绍一下我们这里的春节习俗吧。

正月初一的早上，阿妈都会煮好热腾腾的汤圆，然后，我们就会和阿爸忙上忙下的搬张桌子出来，在桌子上面摆好8个碗，8双筷子，整齐的摆放好，接下来，就该把热乎乎的汤圆盛在碗中啦，最后阿爸就会跪着烧纸钱。祭拜完了以后，我们都争先恐后的抢吃汤圆，因为吃老祖宗吃的东西不会生病。

其实这只是一个简简单单的春节习俗，可是它却体现了我们中华名族上下五千年的传统美德，祭拜，是对长辈的尊重，我们以这种方式来表达我们对长辈的思念，体现了一个孝字。

不管是什么样的春节习俗，都应该很好的传承下去，不是吗？

[关于询问中秋节习俗的英语作文

每年的五月初五都是端午节。端午节又称端阳节、午日节和五月节。当香喷喷的粽子熟了，黄澄澄的雄黄酒酿好了，用来赛龙舟的船也已准备就绪时，那端午节也随着他们问来了。

赛龙舟赛龙舟，是端午节的主要习俗。相传起源于古时楚国人因舍不得贤臣屈原投江死去，许多人划船追赶拯救。他们争先恐后追至洞庭湖时不见踪迹。之后每年五月初五划龙舟以纪念之。借划龙舟驱散江中之鱼，以免鱼吃掉屈原的身体。龙船一般是狭长、细窄的木舟，上刻鳞甲，船头装饰成龙头，船尾装饰成龙尾。只要裁判一声“开始”，双方的人都努力划龙舟，这边一下，那边一下，场面非常壮观。

端午节不仅要划龙舟，还要包粽子，有的地方家家户户都会包“中山芦兜粽”：圆棒形的粗如手臂，用新鲜的竹叶来缚棕，里面放有配料，分别有两种口味。甜粽子有莲蓉、豆沙……咸的有蛋黄、绿豆……包好的粽子放到一个锅里去煮，等粽子煮好以后，会闻到淡淡的竹叶香，清香四溢，弥漫整个厨房……解开外在的包装，剥开粽子叶，甜粽子里藏着红红的棕肉，轻轻咬一口，那味道一定让你回味无穷，唇齿留香。有的人把“简棕”投入河中，让鱼不伤屈原的遗体。

端午节佩香囊是华夏民族的古老习俗。香囊是香荷包的简称。香囊又名香包，荷包，香袋，香荷包。端午节那天小孩佩香囊，不但有辟邪驱瘟之意，而且有襟头点缀之风。香囊内有朱砂，雄黄以及香药，外包以丝布，清香四溢，再以五色丝线弦扣为线索，作各种不同形状，结成一串，形形色色，琳琅满夺目。老年人一般喜欢佩菊花、梅花、桃子、苹果、荷花、娃娃抱公鸡，双莲并蒂等形状的，象征夫妻恩爱，家庭和睦，万事如意。古时候，人们为了确保孩子们的健康，用中药制成香囊拴在孩子们的衣襟和肩衣上。

端午节的习俗非常之多，赛龙舟、包粽子都是其中之一。我觉得端午节蕴含着丰富的民俗文化，我非常喜欢端午节。

端午节的早上，妈妈拿出一个三角形的绿绿的东西。我问妈妈：“妈妈，这是什么呀?”妈妈回答说：“这是粽子。今天是端午节，我们要吃粽子。”然后妈妈还给我介绍了粽子的结构。她说：“粽子的馅是用糯米和一些配料比如红枣之类的混在一起，再用箬竹叶包成三角形。除了红枣馅，还有咸蛋黄、红豆、鸡肉、猪肉之类的，馅料多种多样。”妈妈还说：“在端午节当天，人们除了吃粽子，还有赛龙舟、挂艾草与菖蒲等习俗。”

中午，我们正吃着饭，外面忽然传来一阵“咚咚”声，还有鞭炮的细碎声，妈妈说：“这是赛龙舟活动，古代人们一开始是为了寻找屈原的尸体才划龙舟的，现代慢慢演变为祭祀、纪念屈原的一个仪式。”我赶紧跑去阳台一看：果然是有好几条龙舟在江面上。队员们各自穿着自己的队服，正努力地划着龙舟，场面好激烈呀!

下午，妈妈去市场买回来一些绿色的叶子。我问妈妈这是什么呀?妈妈说：“这是艾草和菖蒲叶，今天我们要把它们挂在门前，预示着驱蛇辟邪。”

端午节的习俗可真有趣呀!

春节是我国各民族的传统节日，100多年前，民间艺人百本张曾在他的曲本中这样写道：正月里家家贺新年，元宵佳节把灯观，月正圆，花盒子处处瞅，炮竹阵阵喧，惹得人大街小巷都游串。这历史上关于岁首春节的生动定照。

相传尧舜时期，我国就有这个节日，殷商甲骨文的卜辞中，亦有关于春节的记载，有庆祝风首春节的风俗，但当时历法，是靠观象授时，是否准确，尚难确定，到了公元前104年汉武帝太初元年，我国人民创造了太初历，明确规定以农历正月为岁首，从这时起，农历新年的习俗就流传了20xx多年，直到新中国成立，改用公元以后，这个节日就改为春节。

在我国最古的文字记载中，有许多关于岁首的故事，腊月和新春，正是秋收冬藏以后的农闲季节，汉郑玄也说过，岁未年初劳农以休息之。拿我们今天的话来说，就是劳逸结合的意思。

那么春节到底是怎么来的呢？相传，在很久以前，有一个名叫万年的青年，看到当时节令很乱，想把节令定准，一天，他上山砍柴，坐在树阴下面休息，树影的移动启发了他，他设计了一个测日影计天时的日晷仪。可是，天阴雨雾，影响测量，后来，山崖上的滴泉引起他的兴趣，他又动手做了五层漏壶，天长日久，他发现每隔三百六十多天，天时的长短就会重复一遍。

那时的国君叫祖乙，天时风云的不测，使他很苦恼。一个名叫阿衡的大臣，为讨好皇上，奏称要设天台敬祭天神，祖乙认为有理，便带领百官去祭天，却无济于事，万年知道后，忍不住带着日晷仪和漏壶去见皇上，对祖乙讲清了日月运行的道理。祖乙听后龙颜大悦，感到有道理。于是把万年留下，在天坛前修建日月阁，筑起日晷台和漏壶亭，并派了十二童子服待万年，祖乙对万年说：希望你能测准日月规律，推算出准确的晨夕时间，创建历法，为天下的黎民百姓造福。

有一次，祖乙传旨要阿衡去了解万年测试历法的进展情况，当他登上日月坛时看见天坛边的石壁上写了一些字，阿衡看见后，知道万年的历法已研究成功，怕皇上重用他，于日派人刺杀万年，结果刺客被士卫抓住了，祖乙知道后，惩处了阿衡，亲自登上日月阁看望万年，万年指着天象，对祖乙说：现在正是十二个月满，旧岁已完，新春复始，祈请国君定个节吧。祖乙说：春为岁道，就叫春节吧。

冬去春来，年复一年，后来，万年经过长期观察，精心推算，制定了准确的太阳历，后来为了纪念万年的功绩，便将太阳日命名为万年历封万年为日月寿星，以后，人们在过年时挂上寿星图，据传说就是为了纪念万年的。

现在我们过年也有一些习俗，如倒贴福字，放爆竹，拜年等等。

农历五月初五，俗称“端午节”。端是“开端”、“初”的`意思。初五可以称为端五。农历以地支纪月，正月建寅，二月为卯，顺次至五月为午，因此称五月为午月，“五”与“午”通，“五”又为阳数，故端午又名端五、重五、端阳、中天等。从史籍上看，“端午”二字最早见于晋人周处《风土记》：“仲夏端午，烹鹜角黍”。端午节是我国汉族人民的传统节日。这一天必不可少的活动逐渐演变为：吃粽子，赛龙舟，挂菖蒲、艾叶，薰苍术、白芷，喝雄黄酒。据说，吃粽子和赛龙舟，是为了纪念屈原，所以解放后曾把端午节定名为“诗人节”，以纪念屈原。至于挂菖蒲、艾叶，薰苍术、白芷，喝雄黄酒，则据说是为了压邪。

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.

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.

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.

大年初一是我感到最快乐 的一天。我不仅可以穿漂亮的新衣服，而且还可以收到许多压岁钱和新年礼物呢！

一大早，我就被此起彼伏的鞭炮声吵醒了。我一睁开眼，就往枕头下面摸，哇！我摸到了两个红包。原来是爷爷 奶奶 和爸爸妈妈 给我的压岁钱。我打开一看，啊，里面有这么多压岁钱呀！我高兴极了，大声喊道：“祝爸爸妈妈工作顺利，永远幸福 ；爷爷奶奶身体健康 ，长命百岁！”全家人都高兴地笑了。

吃完早饭，我就和爸爸一起去他的朋友 家拜年了。我们来到了大伯伯大妈妈家，他们热情地接待了我们。大伯伯在一旁和爸爸说话，而我就和大妈妈在一起看看电视，嗑嗑瓜子，好不快活。忽然，大妈妈起身走进书房里去了，我正感到纳闷。不一会儿，大妈妈出来了，原来大妈妈是去拿送给我的新年礼物和压岁钱了呢！我打开礼物一看，原来是一只正在跳舞的芭比娃娃。她长着一头柔美的秀发，身穿一件洁白的粉色纱裙，真是漂亮极了！我非常高兴，连声说：“谢谢大妈妈。”

离开了大伯伯大妈妈家，我又准备和爸爸妈妈一起去外婆 家拜年了。当然我又可以收到很多压岁钱喽！

有了这么多的压岁钱，今年我又可以参加学校组织的“元宵灯会义卖”活动，我要用自己收到的压岁钱为学校里生病的同学献上一份爱心。

每一个人的家乡过新春时都有不同的习俗，例如：放鞭炮、拜年、吃汤圆等，我也向大家介绍介绍我的家乡的习俗吧！

我的家乡在浙江省淳安县汾口镇，他们那里过年可热闹啦！过年前，大人们早早地就准备好了许多鞭炮，而孩子们就在不亦乐乎地玩着鞭炮。到除夕那天早上，大人们要清理房屋，贴对联，还要在门上贴门神。清理房屋时，要把不用的东西统统扔掉，以示“辞旧迎新”。

除夕傍晚，要先去拜祭已逝的亲人，然后全家人围坐在一起，高高兴兴地吃团圆饭。这天晚上，除了一些比较小的孩子，其他人都要守岁，当十二点的钟声响起时，就要放烟花，放鞭炮，表示新的一年已经来到。

第二天早上六点多钟，大家又要早早起来放鞭炮。吃过早餐，就要去别人家里拜年，一般去别人家都是带两瓶酒。而主人就要拿出糖果、酒、小菜，和客人喝两杯。

到了初六初七，就会有戏班子来村里唱戏、舞竹马，精彩的很呢！

这就是我的家乡过年时的习俗，你呢？

两千多年前，伟大的爱国诗人屈原在汩罗江边仰天长叹一声，投入了滚滚激流，两千多年后，五月初五成了传统节日——端午节，大家包粽子、划龙舟、煮鸡蛋，用各种方式来纪念这位伟大的爱国诗人。 又是一年端午节，我很想体会体会这种气氛，便向奶奶要求，让她教我怎样包粽子。 包粽子，首先要把箬叶洗干净，在热水中泡软。再准备好枣子、鸡蛋、肉等做陷，将自己喜欢的陷煮得香喷喷的，就可以开工了。先把长长的箬叶折叠，围拢来，做成一个窝，中间放进调配好的糯米和粳米，包出棱角。然后把陷放在米里，和在一起揉匀，最后把箬叶包着的粽子做成四角的形状。

这包粽子的功夫全在最后一道工序，粽子包得好不好，就看四个角是不是匀称，是不是有型。我开始学的时候，总是把四个角弄歪了，不是成了六个角，就是揉成一团球了。 奶奶就不止一次看着我的“杰作”发笑：“这，这能叫粽子吗?你让细线系在什么地方啊?” 我晕!感情粽子包出四个棱角是方便用细线系着挂起来的，怎么这世界上就没有圆粽子呢? 包好的粽子放进锅里用猛火煮，大约1小时后，改文火煮30分钟就可以。

在煮粽子的过程中，我总是急不可耐地要揭盖子察看情况。因为从锅里飘出那粽子的香气，馋得我直流口水。 等待的时间总是特别的漫长，看到热气腾腾的粽子终于从锅里“解放”出来的时候，我高兴得手舞足蹈。放在碗里，用筷子剥开，就可以看到里面金黄松软的“粽肉”了，咬一口，美味无比，我差点连筷子都要咬下来了。 今年端午节，我学会了包粽子，品尝到自己劳动的果实，那感觉不是一般的甜蜜。

‘噼噼叭叭’，阵阵清脆的鞭炮声迎来大年初一，我和爸爸，妈妈一起去给亲戚们拜年。

‘砰砰砰’，我敲响大姨家的门。门开，大姨抱着妹妹笑吟吟地迎出来。“大姨，妹妹，新年好！”我一进门就向大姨祝贺新年。大家互相问候着新年，大姨忙着给我们泡茶水，拿出很多好吃的，最令我惊喜的是给我包二百块钱的红包呢！这时，我的伯伯不在家，我便问”大姨，伯伯呢“”唉，他呀，整天就知道忙工作，家里什么都不管。这不，大年初一都到去值班去。“她假装生气地说。可我才不相信她真的生气呢，她脸上还带着微笑呢。

告别大姨和妹妹，我又踏上去老家的火车。我外公外婆还有另外一个大姨家在娄底，要向娄底进发——！坐两个半小时的火车，终于到娄底火车站。我外公家住在火车站旁边，我三步并作两步往外公家跑去。一进门，外公就迎进来。”外公，恭喜发财，红包拿来！“外公笑得合不拢嘴，连忙给我一个红包，我打开一看，嗨，又有二百元！呵呵，我今年可是收入可观呀！

在外公家吃中饭，我们又来到大姨家，哥哥早就等在楼下，正在放鞭炮呢！看见哥哥是我最开心的事，因为他总是能想出很多好玩的鬼点子。他迫不及待地拉着我一起他家玩起赛车游戏，好刺激啊！

这一天过得真快，转眼就到快天黑的时候。大姨的厨艺在我们家族中可是最好的，晚上肯定要留下来品尝她为我们准备的丰盛晚餐啦！面对着一桌子香喷喷的饭菜，我们一大家子围坐在桌边，每个人脸上都洋溢着幸福的笑容，我真的感到”生活比蜜甜“的滋味呢！

过年真好，我不禁开始盼望明年的新年！

中国各地都有各自的过节习俗，而我的老家，位于xx省xx市xx县，这里的春节与别的地方截然不同。

春节的前几天，是大人们最忙的时候，忙活这忙活那。但是，我们小孩子最憧憬的时候，是爸爸妈妈买了许多好吃的，而我们却只能眼巴巴地看着，可望而不可即，于是，便急切地盼望着春节的到来。

腊月二十三过小年，这一天，是要吃糖的，街上早有卖糖瓜的，又甜又黏，小孩子们最喜欢。

过了二十三，必须大扫除一次，还得备足年货，可真照应了北京春节童谣：二十三，糖瓜粘，二十四，扫房子……

终于要正式过年了，什么是我们一家首要的任务呢？当然是祭灶、扫尘、贴春联、请门神挂年画啊！还有，拜年也是啊！每到一家，我都要说上一句吉祥话，如：“新年快乐”、“恭喜发财”……而爸爸妈妈则送上一份拜年时必备的礼品，亲戚朋友们则会拿出一个红包递给我，这是我最高兴的事了，于是心里盘算着这钱该怎么用，买些零食？或是文具？买点玩的也不错，谁知，一回家就被“无情”的妈妈给收了去，我只好无奈地把这些幻想的泡泡给吹灭了。

除夕那天晚上，也是我家最开心的时候。全家人一齐吃完年夜饭，再看春节联欢晚会。

正月十五元宵节，还有看花灯、吃元宵、放花炮的习俗。

这就是我家乡的春节习俗。
