The Nian Monster - Chinese lunar new year
By Kids, For Kids Story Time - Children's Story Podcast | Mar 17 2024 | 00:09:15
This is a tale from China about Nian, a huge, scary beast that loved to munch on everything in sight every Lunar New Year! 🐉✨ Wesley and Warren, two talented kids from the BKFK community, wrote and performed this story for us! 🎧
Nian was a giant with a lion's head and super sharp teeth, as big as a bus! 😲 It used to sleep all year but woke up hungry on New Year’s Eve to visit a village for a snack. 🍽️ The villagers were super scared and had to hide away.
Then, one New Year’s, an old man appeared. 🚶♂️ He asked for food and, when he learned about Nian, he said, "Let me stay for a night, and I'll make sure Nian never bothers us again."
The man prepared the house with red papers and lights, and bamboo. How would this frighten the fearsome monster?!!
