{The book was a yardsale find of course}.

The Chinese Calendar craft requires red cardstock, photocoping, cutting, gluing, and a paper fastener. A good quiet activity if you plan on doing a Chinese New Year themed meeting.
Felt Fortune Cookies
from Martha Stewart
"The shape of Hong Kong Girl Guides Association's Symbol is based on the
trefoil. Its notched edges recall the distinctive leaves of Bauhinia
blakeana, Hong Kong's flower. The internal form of the symbol is a
stylised version of the Chinese character “Gwong”
meaning a ray of light of guiding beacon, a concept especially
appropriate to the spirit of Guiding. When used in colour, the symbol
will be mainly in mauve which reflects the Bauhinia blossom's colour
along with red which is considered particularly auspicious by the
Chinese".
