Things to note when shaving your child's head

1. It is not recommended to shave a child's head because the child's skull and nervous system have not yet fully grown. Close contact with the child's scalp may often damage the skull and nervous system.
2. Be sure to do a dry haircut when cutting children's hair, and then wash their hair. A baby's hair is naturally soft. If you cut it after washing, the hair will become softer, making it more difficult to cut.
3. If a child has eczema on his head, he should get a haircut in time to prevent the eczema from further worsening. When cutting the hair of children with eczema, special attention should be paid to keeping the clippers away from the scalp to prevent irritation of eczema.
4. Deal with dandruff first. If your child has dandruff on his head, it is best to apply baby oil on his head for 24 hours. After the dandruff softens, use baby shampoo to remove it and then cut his hair. This is to prevent dandruff from being brought down during the haircut, causing pain and infection.

The historical origins of the Zhongyuan Festival

The Zhongyuan Festival originated from the early "Mid-July" festival when crops were harvested and ancestor worship was offered in autumn. The origin of "Mid-July" can be traced back to the ancient ancestor worship and harvest festivals.
In ancient times, people often relied on the protection of gods for a good harvest.

For example, Dong Zhongshu of the Han Dynasty said in "The Four Sacrifices" in "Chun Qiu Fan Lu": "In ancient times, there were four sacrifices a year. The four sacrifices were to offer sacrifices to the ancestors and parents according to the produce of the four seasons. So in spring it is called "ci", in summer it is called "lu", in autumn it is called "chang", and in winter it is called "zheng." Ancestor worship takes place in spring, summer, autumn and winter, but "autumn tasting" is very important among them.
Autumn is the harvest season. People hold ceremonies to offer sacrifices to the spirits of their ancestors, first offering the seasonal delicacies to the gods, then tasting the fruits of their labor and praying for a good harvest in the coming year.
According to historical documents, the activity of Autumn Tasting to worship ancestors has existed since the pre-Qin period. Initially, the date of "Autumn Tasting" was uncertain, but later it was gradually fixed in mid-July, usually on the first full moon day after the beginning of autumn, when the autumn air arrives.
