压岁钱
春节拜年时,长辈要将事先准备好的压岁钱分给晚辈,据说压岁钱可以压住邪祟,因为“岁”与“祟”谐音,晚辈得到压岁钱就可以平平安安度过一岁.压岁钱有两种,一种是以彩绳穿线编作龙形,置于床脚,此记载见于《燕京岁时记》；另一种是最常见的,即由家长用红纸包裹分给孩子的钱.压岁钱可在晚辈拜年后当众赏给,亦可在除夕夜孩子睡着时,由家长愉偷地放在孩子的枕头底下.

倒贴福字
每逢新春佳节,家家户户都要在屋门上、墙壁上、门楣上贴上大大小小的“福”字.春节贴“福”字,是我国民间由来已久的风俗.据《梦梁录》记载：“岁旦在迩,席铺百货,画门神桃符,迎春牌儿……”；“士庶家不论大小,俱洒扫门闾,去尘秽,净庭户,换门神,挂钟旭,钉桃符,贴春牌,祭把祖宗”.文中的“贴春牌”即是写在红纸上的“福”字.
“福”字现在的解释是“幸福”,而在过去则指“福气”、“福运”.春节贴“福”字,无论是现在还是过去,都寄托了人们对幸福生活的向往,也是对美好未来的祝愿.民间为了更充分地体现这种向往和祝愿,干脆将“福”字倒过来贴,表示“幸福已倒”“福气已到”.“福”字倒贴在民间还有一则传说.明太祖朱璋当年用“福”字作暗记准备杀人.好心的马皇后为消除这场灾祸,令全城大小人家必须在天明之前在自家门上贴上一个“福”字.马皇后的旨意自然没人敢违抗,于是家家门上都贴了“福”字.其中有户人家不识字,竟把“福”字贴倒了.第二天,皇帝派人上街查看,发现家家都贴了“福”字,还有一家把“福”字贴倒了.皇帝听了禀报大怒,立即命令御林军把那家满门抄斩.马皇后一看事情不好,忙对朱元漳说：“那家人知道您今日来访,故意把福字贴倒了,这不是“福到”的意思吗?”皇帝一听有道理,便下令放人,一场大祸终于消除了.从此人们便将福字倒贴起来,一求吉利,二为纪念马皇后.
民间还有将“福”字精描细做成各种图案的,图案有寿星、寿桃、鲤鱼跳龙门、五谷丰登、龙凤呈祥等.过去民间有“腊月二十四,家家写大字”的说法,“福”字以前多为手写,现在市场、商店中均中出售.
