Setting off firecrackers(爆竹) is the happiest part of the Spring Festival for most Chinese kids which is the typical Chinese custom. While setting off firecrackers can bring kids so much fun these firecrackers can also be a danger. Therefore many Chinese big cities including Beijing began to ban them in the 1980s. Such an activity was completely or partially forbidden in big cities because the government considered it was not safe and polluted the air. As a replacement some buy tapes with firecracker sounds to listen to some break little balloons to get the sound too while others buy firecracker handicrafts(手工制品) to hang in the living room.

However a few years ago the ban on firecrackers was cancelled（取消）. Hearing the news many kids were wild with joy.

According to Chinese custom lighting firecrackers is a must during the Spring Festival. People believe the sound of the firecrackers drives away bad luck for the coming year. Their beautiful colors and sound also bring much excitement during this most important traditional Chinese festival.

 Since the ban people complained that the Spring Festival was too quiet and not traditional enough. Children lost the fun and grown-ups lost their childhood memories.

Some even worried that if the ban continued the next generation would only know the custom of lighting firecrackers through books. This would be a great loss for tradition. So in recent years many cities have brought back the old custom.

However every year there are kids injured by setting off fireworks in a dangerous way. So while enjoying yourself please keep safety in mind..

Don’t light fireworks among crowds inside a bottle or with a part of your body right over it.

No matter how much fun firecrackers are the most important thing is to keep away from danger. We wish every kid an exciting and safe Spring Festival!
