I believe that many parents will have such confusion, is the child's birthday a good solar calendar, or the lunar calendar (lunar calendar) is good?
Now the date of birth on the child's household registration book will generally choose to use the solar calendar, because now the hospital will use the solar calendar to open the birth certificate for the child, so the child's household registration book will naturally also write the date of birth of the solar calendar.
However, for a child's birthday, whether to choose the solar calendar or the lunar calendar (lunar calendar) is different.
1. Children living in rural areas are more willing to celebrate lunar birthdays, while children living in cities are more willing to celebrate solar calendar birthdays?
Many netizens will feel that the parents of children living in rural areas will generally give their children a lunar birthday, while children living in the city will generally have a solar calendar birthday.
Why is there such an impression?
Because farming will be involved in the countryside, farming is carried out according to the twenty-four solar terms, and the twenty-four solar terms are recorded according to the lunar calendar, that is, the lunar calendar, so the rural general habits are calculated according to the lunar calendar.
In the traditional concept of Chinese, the lunar calendar has been used since ancient times, especially some traditional festivals, such as the Mid-Autumn Festival, Spring Festival, Dragon Boat Festival, Chongyang Festival, Lantern Festival, etc. are calculated according to the lunar calendar, so some elderly people engaged in agriculture still very much agree with the lunar calendar.
Therefore, relatively speaking, many parents of children living in rural areas are more willing to celebrate their lunar birthdays.
The parents of children living in the city will use the solar calendar to work and go out on weekdays, and the notices issued by the unit will be counted according to the yang calendar, so the birthday of children in the city will generally be in accordance with the yang calendar.
Therefore, whether a child has a solar calendar birthday or a lunar birthday is directly related to the parents' usual living habits and living environment.
2, whether to have a solar birthday or a lunar birthday, or depends on personal habits.
Some people pay more attention to tradition, pay attention to the traditional Chinese lunar calendar, and also pay attention to the eight characters of the birthday, and the eight characters of the birthday are calculated in the yin calendar.
The genus of each of us is also calculated according to the calendar, and for more traditional people, they are more willing to give their children a lunar birthday, which is all personal freedom, as long as they are happy.
The solar calendar is a universal calendar, which is easier to connect with the world.
Generally, people who pay more attention to constellations will give their children birthdays according to the solar calendar, because the constellations are calculated in terms of the yang calendar.
In fact, for the child to have a lunar birthday or a solar calendar birthday, I don't think there is any need to tangle, mainly to see the personal idea, in fact, which birthday, it does not matter much, mainly the family is happy.
The purpose of giving a child a birthday is to add a sense of ceremony, make the family more warm and harmonious, and make the child happier, as long as the family agrees, as for whether it is a lunar birthday or a solar calendar birthday, it does not matter.
3, give the child a birthday to have a sense of ceremony.
Some parents do not attach much importance to giving their children a birthday, and even neglect to give their children a birthday.
People's happiness and good memories of life are accumulated bit by bit, for children, the annual birthday should not be missed by children.
Whether it is a lunar birthday or a solar birthday for the child, parents do not have to care how much money they have to spend on their children, or how grand the birthday party is, what is important is that parents prepare for their children with their hearts, are willing to spend time for their children's birthdays, and accompany their children.
In the 1970s and 1980s, people's general economic conditions are not very good, on the birthday of the mother to the child to boil two eggs, make a bowl of longevity noodles, the child will be very happy, parents for the child's birthday, will become the child's lifelong indelible good memory.
Now the general living conditions of children have become better, parents' birthday gifts are becoming more and more expensive, in fact, to buy birthday gifts for children, not in the price, as long as the heart, is the child's needs, the child likes it.
Like when we were young, the material conditions were limited, and parents sent books to their children on birthdays and bought a pair of very ordinary shoes, which would make us happy for a few months.
Therefore, to give the child a birthday, the important thing is the sense of ceremony, in the ordinary life to let the child have extraordinary memories and joy, when the child is still worth remembering when the child is an adult, it will make the child's heart full of confidence and beauty.
4, to the child to have a solar birthday or a lunar birthday is a personal choice, the key is to remember to give the child a birthday.
In general, people with traditional thinking prefer to give their children a lunar birthday, and parents with more modern ideological concepts are more willing to give their children a solar calendar birthday, for children, which birthday children will not mind, but parents remember to pay attention to their children's birthdays, do not let their children's childhood leave regrets.
Some parents do not attach much importance to giving their children a birthday, thinking that their children are small and do not understand so much.
In fact, the more children, the more children will remember these ritualistic little things in their hearts, and they will become the most beautiful and precious memories of their lives.
Think about our own childhood, those bits and pieces of the warm past with our parents, are composed of those tiny moments, if there is no those small bits of life that make us worth remembering, life will be a lot less warm and fun.
Therefore, parents should remember to give their children a birthday with their hearts, how much money the child spends on his birthday is not important, what matters is the parents' intentions and companionship, and whether the child's birthday is meaningful and creative.
