Ningbo changxia custom

I hope the children will spend their summer vacation safely.

An egg bump in long summer refers to an egg cooked in the same day in summer. In some places, eggs are boiled with black tea or walnut kernels, and the eggs are placed in the egg cover woven by stepping on the thread. Children play with fighting eggs, and only when the eggshell is hard can they win.

Children in the long summer take part in the "Egg Beating Competition". The children beat the eggs one by one with eggs in their hands. The eggshells were strong but not broken. May 6th is the long summer, and the custom of breaking eggs is very popular in Jiangsu and Zhejiang provinces, mainly for children to spend the summer safely.
