Lucky Envelope Game
During Lunar New Year, a popular tradition is gifting of the red envelope (known as, hóngbāo) to children, elders, friends and family. These lucky red envelopes are filled with money - and symbolize prosperity and luck for the new year.
A fun spin on this tradition is to fill red envelopes with coins or cash and hide them around the house. Whoever finds the most red envelopes is the lucky winner- and gets to keep the cash!
