Can children go out on the night of Mid-Autumn Festival?

Children can't go out on Mid-Autumn Festival.

On the Mid-Autumn Festival, it was very cold. Generally, on the night of July 15 of the lunar calendar, the weather gradually gets cold. Because the temperature difference between morning and evening is large and the wind is strong at night, it is best not to go out.

Some children who are not sensible wear masks to play tricks on their partners at parties, which will greatly affect their mood. In addition, the villagers burn incense and worship at the surrounding intersections, and the children will feel sad involuntarily, and they may not sleep well at night, which will affect the next day's school. Traveling on Mid-Autumn Night aggravates children's psychological burden.

In addition, some children will ask their parents questions out of curiosity. At this time, parents are not good at explaining too much to their children. Some children heard the villagers chanting at the crossroads and didn't know the situation. They think the villagers are talking nonsense. Once parents explain to their children, it will inevitably increase their psychological burden. Therefore, try not to take the children out at night during the Mid-Autumn Festival.

Introduction of customs before and after Mid-Autumn Festival

1, Botou City and Nanpi County took fruits, bacon, wine and money to their ancestral graves on July 15th. It is called "recommending new things" to hold a hemp valley to a field stalk. The Mid-Autumn Festival in Guangping County offers fresh food to worship ancestors, and prepares fruits and vegetables and steamed sheep for grandchildren, which is called "sending sheep". On July 15, Qinghe County went to the grave to pay a sacrifice and offer steamed sheep to her daughter.

2. Farmers in Chenggu County will drink alcohol during the Mid-Autumn Festival, which is called "hanging hoes" to delay farmers in Taiwan. In the morning of the Mid-Autumn Festival, they will go to the fields, pick the highest and densest ears of rice, hang a five-color paper flag and name them "Tian Fang".

3. In southern China, there is a tradition of offering sacrifices on July 14. On this day, people, whether rich or poor, should prepare dining tables, incense sticks and paper money to pay homage to their ancestors to show their memory. Cantonese people call it "July 14th". In the old days, residents went to ghost shops to buy gold and silver paper clothes (that is, all kinds of colored paper, which is generally considered to be used to make ghost clothes), silver coins (Mingbi) and ingots, which were packed in paper bags and sealed, commonly known as "bags". In the afternoon, ancestors are worshipped with sacrifices and fruits, and ghost clothes (bags) are burned after worship, commonly known as "burning clothes".
