    Jan 25 2026

    Welcome back, explorers! Today, we go back to ancient China to uncover the magical mystery behind the bright red envelopes of Chinese New Year. Have you ever wondered why children receive Hongbao? It’s not just about the gift inside. It’s a legend of protection! In this episode, we learn about the sneaky, tip-toeing Demon Sui who only comes out on New Year’s Eve. Discover how a brave family, a piece of red paper, and eight shiny copper coins (who were actually the Eight Immortals in disguise!) used the power of light and the color red to keep children safe. It's the perfect folk tale for kids to learn about Lunar New Year traditions and the history of Ya Sui Qian.
