It is a custom in East Asian countries to grasp the week and predict the baby's future when the child is one year old. When the newborn is one year old, all kinds of things are placed in front of the child and let him grab them. Traditionally, commonly used items are pens, ink, paper, inkstones, abacus, coins, books and so on. It existed in Wei, Jin, Southern and Northern Dynasties. "The custom in Jiangnan is that the first stage of children's life is to make new clothes and decorate them with a bath. Men use bows, arrows, paper and pens, and women use knives and rulers to sew and add food and treasure to play. Before releasing their children, we should observe their intention to take them to test greed, sincerity and wisdom, which is called a test. " Now some will put modern items such as mice and toothbrushes, and some will use image cards instead of physical objects for babies to grab.
When grasping the week, many mothers will put books, money, pen and ink, calculators, seals, rulers, food and so on. Before bed, some mothers will put cookers, scissors, rulers and so on. If it is an ordinary family, the mother will use simple items instead of buying exquisite ones, but if it is in a rich family, the items are required to be high-grade, so that the baby can catch what he likes when grasping the week.
In fact, the most important thing to grasp Zhou is to see what their young parents put for him, but each has its own special meaning and significance. For example, some can put books, which means: they can read books and are suitable for being scholars and experts, while others can put seals, which means: they are powerful and will be big officials. The moral of everything is very beautiful, which can explain young parents' expectations for their babies and their long-term success.
Second, how does the baby grasp the week?
The baby should choose the birthday of the lunar calendar to catch the week. Of course, this is not entirely the case now. Some places have to catch the baby in advance. In the morning, the young mother combs her baby's hair with a comb and sings a song about combing her hair. It means "one comb is wise, two combs are rich, three combs are clever, four combs are vulgar, and five combs and six combs are longevity." In fact, it can also be made up by young mothers themselves, as long as they can sing. Put the things that grasp Zhou on the red cloth, make a semi-circular arc and put them in front of the baby. Choose a few items, at least five, and put 100 yuan, such as toy cars. In fact, the items are relatively novel now, and some will put tablets, apples and the like. Observe carefully what the baby's first object is. You can try a few more times, about three times.
If you want to grasp the week successfully, you must carefully observe the baby's attention and see which one he is most interested in. Everything we prepared at that time was new, and the baby had never touched it before. I think it will be easier for him to succeed because he is unfamiliar with everything. The test time should not be too short or too long, about 20-30 minutes. Let him watch more, play more and grasp it three times a week.
When the baby is one year old, or on his lunar birthday, many young parents think that this day is of great significance, so they will grasp the week for the baby, and the process of grasping the week is quite random, but some young parents think that this can win the lottery and give the baby a good luck, but it also depends on local customs.
