A few days ago, a friend told me that her son was about to have a birthday and invited me to her house.
But I remember that her child's birthday had to wait a while, was it a mistake?
After meeting and inquiring about it, I learned that my friend's baby had a solar calendar birthday, so there were still a few days to go.
Seeing this, some people may feel curious, shouldn't you choose the lunar calendar for your birthday? How can you give your child a solar calendar birthday?
In fact, not only my friend, there are many people in life, especially young friends, will choose to give their children a solar birthday, but the elderly in the family always insist on giving their children a lunar birthday.
On this issue, different people will have different views, everyone expresses their own opinions, and even argues, so when the child celebrates his birthday, whether to choose the lunar calendar or the solar calendar?
For your child's birthday, choose the "lunar calendar" or the "solar calendar"? Parents don't care, or understand
There is only one birthday, and the lunar calendar is decided early
Lunar birthdays and solar calendar birthdays are things that many mothers can't decide for a long time, and even some babies simply have two birthdays, but in our concept, of course, there should only be one birthday, so it is better for mothers to make decisions early.
Lunar birthdays allow children to remember traditions
According to the tradition of the older generation, children should have a lunar birthday, so that children can remember the tradition, now there are many children, do not know what the twenty-four solar terms are, do not know that the lapa festival to drink lapa porridge, Lidong to eat dumplings, but these are the traditional culture of the mainland, need to be passed on.
Let the child celebrate the lunar calendar birthday is not only the inheritance of traditional culture, but also to better educate the child, so that the child knows that it is not only the school holiday days called the festival, our country has a very deep cultural heritage, in some special days, it also needs to be remembered.
The solar calendar is more urban
Most of the people who choose to have a solar calendar birthday are young people in big cities, especially in line with international standards, they pay great attention to catching up with the trend, so they pay more attention to the solar calendar birthday, so the baby will choose the solar calendar when he has a birthday, so that he will look more talkative.
From the calculation method, the solar calendar is actually more accurate
The solar calendar is 365 days a year, the run year is 366 days, the lunar calendar is different, in order to synchronize with the solar calendar, sometimes in the year to add a month, called a leap month, all the pace, including the calculation of working age, etc., are calculated according to the yang calendar.
Because the synodic month is easier to observe than the return year, the ancient calendar is almost always lunar, the earth orbits the sun for three hundred and sixty-five days, while the twelve lunar months are only about three hundred and fifty-four days, so the ancients solved this problem by adding leap months.
Because there are solar terms in the calendar, which are closely related to agricultural planting activities, the "lunar calendar" plays an important role in the lives of Chinese people, especially farmers.
Whether the date of birth is recorded in the lunar or solar calendar, just understand which calendar it is
Some friends think that the eight characters of the birthday are to look at the lunar calendar time, and the constellation is to look at the solar calendar time, which is very different from the two, and cannot be mistaken.
In fact, whether it is a birthday eight-character prediction or a constellation prediction, as long as you know your birth year, month, day, and day, and explain that this is the lunar calendar or solar calendar, after that, through the perpetual calendar to find the time of the year, a conversion can determine your birthday eight characters or constellation.
This, of course, is very easy for professionals, and now the popularity of the Internet also makes this seemingly professional problem, which can be completed directly on the Internet through some software.
Of course, for children's birthdays, we do not value the date, but the sense of ceremony that the date brings.
A birthday with a "sense of ceremony" is a birthday worthwhile
In the past, we grew up healthy and healthy on our birthdays, and now the children's birthdays are more solemn, the children themselves attach great importance to the birthday, birthday cakes, family and small friends' blessings, these are very important in the eyes of children.
Although the birthday can not be ignored, but also do not be too extravagant and wasteful, parents must first establish a correct concept of consumption for their children, correctly understand the meaning of birthday, not the more you spend the better, but also pay attention to the sense of ceremony of the birthday rather than money.
To make this matter more ritualistic, it is necessary to understand the needs of the child and try to satisfy him on this occasion of his birthday, but not to be too spoiled beyond his own ability to do it.
For example, if the child does not lack anything, he wants the companionship of his parents to spend his birthday, then find a way to accompany, such as the child likes to draw, wants a box of watercolor pens, then buy him one, such as the child wants to go to the zoo to broaden his horizons, then meet him, and if he can't accompany him, give enough money for the child to go out, to meet his careful wishes.
