We made red envelopes (elementary school) to go with Sam and the Lucky
Money. There is a great pattern at mycopycat.com. (You need to have a
subscription but the $18.00 per year is well worth it.) I also had a
couple (from a former life, as they say) and showed the kids what red
envelopes really look like. We have an ESL student for the first time
ever so he told us of his experiences with receiving money for Chinese
New Year. I will keep the info in mind and perhaps consider buying some
for future use as well. The name that copycat used was leisee so I hope
that they are the same as mentioned below.
Thanks,
Deb Hendrickson
