This Is My Second Activity! I Made a Red Envelope, There Was a Legend About This Chinese Monster That Kills People, So The Only Colour He’s Afraid Of Is The Colour Red. People Would Give Red Envelopes To Avoid Getting Killed By This Monster, Inside The Red Envelope Is Chinese Coins, Four Is a Bad Number Of Coins Because In Chinese, The Number Four Sounds Like Death. You Can Get 100, 200, 10, 1000, 50, 500, And Even 5,000! Who Gives And Who Takes? Married, Give To Unmarried! And Adult, Give To Children! Isn’t That Awesome?!
