Kindergarten children wearing hats they made for Chinese New Year:
Because I posted this photo last year as part of my "year of the rat" post, this is technically not a new photo, however it is one of my favorite hat photos.

Cute!!! The new year coming up, at least I think it is, is MY year...the year of the Ox?!!! Yay.
I'm not a hat person, but I found 'hats' around our home that will work for the hunt. Come on over if you can. I would love to have your company.

Very nice contribution to this week's PhotoHunt theme. I like how colorful the scene is. It looks like they're watching a parade, correct?
By the way, over at my blog I'm starting a new photo-meme for Sundays based on my Sunday Scenery posts. The details can be found on the Sunday Scenery Photo Meme page on my blog. I hope you'll consider joining the fun.

Hi Again....regarding your comment you left for me just a few minutes ago...Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid is MY favorite movie too. It's a classic...I can mouth the words right along with the script I've seen it so many times in the last 40 years.
And the sketch is one I did myself...
Thanks for the comment.
Have a great weekend.

Thanks everyone! I forgot to link to my other post when I first did this post late last night. The children were lined up waiting to watch the lion dance that was about to start. The hats were made out of tissue paper and construction paper. Not sure how the teacher made the braids. The teacher that did this activity with her class is teaching first grade this year. We are having our lion dance this Friday (the 23rd). I am curious to see if the teacher has her first graders dressed up in these cute hats this year - the Year of the Ox.
