Hand-made rain works
Today's handicraft activity, we * * * make solar term ornaments-rain, which is one of the 24 solar terms, usually between February 18 and 20 of the Gregorian calendar every year. At this time, the temperature rises, the ice and snow melt, and the precipitation increases, hence the name rain.
Before and after the rain festival, everything began to sprout, indicating that spring is coming. In ancient times, rain was divided into three periods, one was the period when otters sacrificed fish. In this season, otters start fishing, another is for the arrival of geese, that is to say, geese begin to fly back to the north from the south, and the third is for the germination of plants. After that, the spring rain came to the earth, and flowers and trees began to sprout.
So today's handicraft activities have experienced the above three points: there is rain, there are small buds sprouting in the soil, and there are small potatoes planted by children (and each child has his own small ideas in handcraft: for example, the arrangement of raindrops, the decoration of clouds, the decoration of umbrellas, and the small flowers symbolizing the arrival of spring)
Manual operation-making small umbrellas
There is also the custom of going back to her mother's house in the rainy season. The daughter and son-in-law went back to their parents' house to extend their father-in-law's life, and their parents-in-law gave them umbrellas. The implication is that the son-in-law is the head of the family and hopes to take responsibility at home and shelter the family from the wind and rain. At the same time, it is also a kind of care for the younger generation by the elders. It is inevitable that there will be wind and rain when running around outside. So I will send an umbrella in case of emergency.
