1, wear colorful rope
During the Dragon Boat Festival, it is one of the past customs to tie colored silk threads into ropes and hang them on doors, beds and cradles, or to wear them around children's necks and hands. Families used to do it themselves. Nowadays, due to economic and commercial reasons, most places often sell such handicrafts, so many people no longer make them themselves, but buy them directly, which will reduce the fun and intention of doing them.
Step 2 wear a sachet
Sachets are also called small bags, wallets, sachets, etc. Some are made of silk thread, some are made of rags, and some Chinese herbal medicines with aroma or unique smell will be put in them. Some sachets will also contain mussels or pearl powder, and then add appropriate cotton and a few beads. Children can absorb sweat and avoid insects. The contents of the sachet can be changed. Some people will put spells, copper coins and bugs in it.
3. Auspicious implication
People bring sachets and silk thread mainly for good luck. Although they don't expect to avoid disasters and be healthy all their lives, they actually reflect people's yearning and sustenance for a better life and a healthy body. When children wear colorful silk threads and colorful sachets, there is another meaning that they hope that children can grow up healthily and avoid disasters. Silk thread and sachet have different styles and contents, and their specific meanings are also somewhat different. Ancient girls would regard sachet as their fixed meaning.
