The Chinese give about $200.00 every year to their nieces, nephues, granddaughters, grandsons, daughters, sons, anybody in their family, in a lunar envelope. If you're wondering what a lunar envelope is, it is a special, red envelope that you put money in, and give away to your relatives every Chinese New Year.

( Only Chinese people use the lunar envelope! )
