Best Answer

Mooncake festival is also called Mid-autumn festival. Celebration of Mid-autumn festival has a long history. In ancient times, the emperors had the tradition of worshiping the Sun in spring, and the Moon in autumn. The word "Mid-Autumn" first appeared in the famous ancient book "Zhou Li" (The Zhou Rituals, a book telling the rituals in the Zhou Dynasty). However, it was not until the early Tang Dynasty that the day was officially celebrated as a traditional festival. It became a established festival during the Song Dynasty, and has become as popular as the Spring Festival since the Ming and Qing Dynasties. Celebrations has continued ever since and more customs for marking this occasion have been formed.

We eat jiaozi.Someone put penny ,candy and Chinese date into it .Penny means you would make a lot of money in the coming new year ,candy which is sweat means that you would be happy all the year.Chinese date a kind of chinese traditional food ,which taste sweet and pronounced in Chinese tune just similar to the meaning of quick,means the new couple can get a baby.

Set fireworks, ancient chinese people believe that there was a monster called"年" (nian).It can brings the bad luck.So they set fireracker and fireworks.

Children will get pocket money.There is a fairy tale that a monster called"祟"lived on eating children on the eve of Chinese new year ,so the adults put money by the children's pillow and didn't put off the light to protect their children.
