Hellooo Culture Kids! Grab your imaginary passports because today we’re heading into a cozy home to celebrate Nowruz, a springtime New Year that has been celebrated for over 3,000 years.

In this episode, we visit our friends Hannah and her mom, Ms. Sadaf, to experience how their family prepares for this special holiday. Through storytelling, sound, and imagination, we step inside their home, smell delicious foods, see beautiful traditions, and learn what this celebration means to families around the world.

What You’ll Discover

What Nowruz is and why it marks the first day of spring

How families celebrate across Iran, Afghanistan, Central Asia, and beyond

The meaning behind Khaneh-Tekani (spring cleaning)

The beautiful Haft-Seen table and what each item represents

How to say “Happy New Year” in Farsi: Sal-e No Mobarak

Nowruz is more than a celebration; it’s a reminder that new beginnings, hope, and connection are shared across cultures in different and beautiful ways.

Through this adventure, children are invited to see the world as a place full of traditions, stories, and families who may do things differently, but share many of the same hopes for joy, renewal, and togetherness.

A heartfelt thank you to Hannah and Ms. Sadaf for welcoming us into their home and sharing their traditions with our Culture Kids families.

To our Culture Kids families celebrating, Sal-e No Mobarak!

We wish you light, peace, and a beautiful new beginning.
