The First Year
In China, there are special traditions for
children in their first year. On the day a child is born,
the family brings presents that have pictures of tigers
on them. This is because some Chinese people believe
that tigers can keep children safe. When a boy or girl
is one year old, the family puts a variety of items on
the floor in front of the child. Then the parents watch
their child carehlly. They believe that the item the
child picks up will be similar to his or her future
profession. These two traditions make the first year in
a child's life very important.
