What do you need to prepare for a week?

Grasping Zhou is a cultural custom, which began in Wei and Jin Dynasties. That is to say, when the newborn baby is one year old, parents prepare various items in front of the baby, each item has different meanings, so that the baby can grasp what he likes and predict the baby's future.

First of all, there are traditionally papers, pens, coins, abacus, books and so on. But in modern times, people also put some electronic technology products such as mice and computers. Grasping the abacus shows that the baby has a talent for mathematics and is good at science. Grasping books means that the baby loves reading and liberal arts, and is suitable for working in the education department, while brushing money is good at managing money.

Secondly, you can also prepare some foods, such as oranges, onions, garlic and other foods. Catching oranges means that the baby will be prosperous in this life. Grasping onions means that the baby will be very smart, and grasping garlic means that the baby can do arithmetic. In fact, grasping a week is a very interesting thing, which contains many meanings. Parents can try to let their baby grasp the week at the age of one.

Finally, don't prepare too many things for grasping the week, lest the baby don't know how to choose. As long as several items are selected in succession, the first thing that the baby catches will be dominant. It is best to choose something of similar size and color, preferably something that the baby touches for the first time, so as to reduce interference.
