According to Chinese customs, it is not a good idea to visit elders empty-handed during the Chinese New Year. Moreover, gift-giving must be done with joy, so that the elders can accept them happily, with a smile on their faces and sweetness in their hearts. Therefore, for some young friends who have just entered the workplace, what gifts to give to their elders during the Chinese New Year and how to give them is indeed a science. The Spring Festival is an important traditional festival of ours. If you want to know more about the Spring Festival, please come and check out the 2018 Spring Festival special feature on the Fortune Teller website!1. Gifts should not appear expensive1. Chinese people have a custom called reciprocity. That is to say, if A gives B a benefit, then B should give back to A at the appropriate time. Therefore, when we give overly expensive gifts to our elders, it will, to a certain extent, cause a certain psychological burden on the elderly - even if they are our own parents, they will feel painful for spending so much money on their children.What gifts should I give to my elders during Chinese New Year? 2. Therefore, when we give gifts to elders, we should not emphasize the price and value of the gifts when meeting them. Instead, we should treat them as normal visits to their homes so as not to cause psychological burden to the elderly. What gifts should I give to my elders during Chinese New Year? 2. Gifts should not be given just to satisfy personal bad habits1. For example, when we go to pay New Year’s greetings to some uncles, and the old men love to smoke, we bring some high-end cigarettes with us. This is inappropriate.You know, when you give cigarettes to your uncles, they will be happy, but will your aunts be happy too? Maybe, my aunt and my cousin are secretly complaining in their hearts: The old man’s health has just improved a little, and all the efforts of several months have been wasted because of this cigarette of yours.

Therefore, when we give gifts to our elders, we must take health as the premise and never just give them to satisfy personal bad habits. You know, peace and safety are the real happiness. What gifts should I give to my elders during Chinese New Year? 3. Gifts should be novel1. As the times change, gifts should also keep pace with the times. In the past, during the Cultural Revolution, when people were short of food and clothing, giving elders a bag of rice and a few cotton-padded clothes during festivals would make the whole family overjoyed. But this is no longer appropriate now. Therefore, when choosing a gift, it is necessary to use your brain to think about how to make your gift unique and not drowned in the sea of gifts from others.2. For example, for some elders with a higher cultural level, we can choose some simple and easy-to-use electronic products, such as tablets, digital radios, etc., to enrich their spare time. For some elders who have a rich amateur cultural and entertainment life, we can even appropriately choose some calligraphy and paintings, bonsai, and flowers, which not only beautify the environment but also cultivate sentiment, which is killing two birds with one stone. |
