Here are a few ways you can celebrate the Lunar New Year in the Year of the Monkey.
1. Prepare a Lunar New Year feast fit for the Monkey King.

4. If you're lucky, you'll get lots of money-filled red envelopes, also called lì xì (Vietnamese), hóng bāo (Mandarin), lai see (Cantonese), or ang bao.
But remember — the Lunar New Year is a time to celebrate and monkey around!
