“是璀灿的珠宝溢光流彩，是闪光的花瓣落英缤纷，真想不到呀，小小的纸筒里，有着那么美的灵魂——火一般的热烈，花一样的迷人，它把迅息的一生，献给了新春……”
这是一首咏炮花的诗。每当除夕之夜，不管是繁华的城市还是僻静的山村，无论是霓虹灯闪耀的闹市还是小巷深处，“嘣嘣叭叭”“哔哔（口剥）（口剥）”的爆竹声，此起彼落，竞相欢叫。那五彩缤纷的火花，给深沉的夜暮划出一道道彩虹，给人们增添了无穷的乐趣。
放爆竹庆贺春节，在我国已有两千多年的历史了。古人焚竹发声，名曰“爆竹”。《通俗编俳优》说：“古时爆竹，皆为真竹着火爆之，故唐人诗亦称爆竿。后人卷纸为之，称曰爆竹。”爆竹的原意在于惊惮和驱逐恶鬼。《荆楚岁时记》中记述：“正月一日，是三元之日也，鸡鸣而起，先于庭前爆竹，以辟山魈恶鬼。”《神异经》云：“西方山中有人焉，长尺余，一足，性不畏人；犯之令人寒热，名曰山魈。以竹着火中，哔哔有声，而山魈惊惮。
后人遂象其形，以火药为之。“这当然是迷信的说法。今天，我们放爆竹虽有除旧迎新、取个吉祥兆头之意，但已没有什么迷信的色彩了。
相传，到了初唐年间，一些地方天灾连年，瘟疫四起，有个叫李田的人，便在小竹筒内装上硝，导以爆炸，以硝烟驱散山岚瘴气，减退疫病流行，这便是装硝爆竹最早的雏形。后来，由于火药的发明，人们用纸造的筒子代替了竹子，并用麻茎把炮竹编成串，称为“编炮”，因声音清脆如鞭响，也叫“鞭炮”。宋代，已有除夕出售鞭炮于开封府街头的记载（《东京梦华录》）。在全国各地也有了专门生产爆竹的作坊。最初的纸卷爆竹，响一下就完了，后来发展为各种花炮。
爆竹，它是中国特产，在外国是没有的。从古至今，由于人们不断加工、改进，爆竹的品种、样式越来越多，色彩也跳出了单一的火红色。除了传统的百子鞭炮、单响、双响的花炮外，还有许许多多的花炮，并取了一个个文雅、富于诗意的名称。如：“金菊吐艳”、“飞雪迎春”
、“仙女散花”、“白雪红梅”、“金猴腾空”等等，还有百头、千头、万头，甚至长达十万头的巨型鞭炮，真是应有尽有，五花八门
