Every year on Children's Day, Changchun Confucian Temple will hold a large-scale enlightenment ceremony for public welfare children. Enlightenment ceremony, also known as "opening ceremony" in ancient times, is an important part of China's traditional etiquette culture.

Holding the enlightenment ceremony is a form of enlightenment education for children to start literacy, and it is a very grand commemorative ceremony to mark children entering the learning stage of life.

The Dacheng Hall of Changchun Confucian Temple and the white marble railings of Panqiao are tied with red silk flower, and the venue for the ceremony is covered with red carpets and decorated with flowers and green plants. The ceremony made the children understand the significance of reading and learning and the truth of being a man and doing things through the steps of dressing and cleaning hands, writing and learning books, and cinnabar enlightenment.
