Kid's Northern Lion Dance Costume

The lion dance is one of China's most distinctive cultural arts. It dates back to the Han Dynasty (205 B.C. to 220 A.D). It is an important tradition in China. Usually the dance is part of festivities like the Chinese New Year, grand openings of businesses, and weddings. If well-performed, the lion dance is believed to bring luck and happiness.

Northern lions usually have long and shaggy orange and yellow hair with either a red bow, or a green bow on its head to represent a male or female. They usually appear in pairs. During the performance, northern lions resemble a Pekinese Dog or Fu Dogs and movements are very life-like. Acrobatics are very common, with stunts like lifts or balancing on a giant ball. Northern lions sometimes appear as a family, with two large "adult" lions and a pair of small "young lions".
