Happy Lunar New Year!

Starting a New Year's Tradition...

We have a cousin that lives in Washington with her family and her kids who are half Jewish got into the Korean spirit in borrowed hanboks by doing sebae to their parents and making mandoos with their Korean friends!

It's such a great idea getting your kids involved in making mandoo...and all Korean kids love mandoo! Great tradition to start with your kids!

Thanks Mary for letting me post these pics!

Korean New Year's Day "Seollal" Sebae

On New Year's Day, Korean's do a formal greeting bow to their elders called sebae. In return the elders hand out crisp new bills to the children. It is also customary for adults and children to wear hanboks.
