In terms of traditional folk customs in China, Shaanxi Province has profound folk culture, simple folk customs and local characteristics. Because in history, Xi was the capital of the Western Han Dynasty, Sui and Tang Dynasties. The westernization of lanterns began in the Western Han Dynasty with a history of 1800 years. During the Sui and Tang Dynasties, lanterns became more prosperous. Lanterns in Shaanxi province have also been added. It is necessary and indispensable for my uncle to send lanterns to my nephew before the fifteenth day of the first month. Sending lanterns is a traditional folk custom in Shaanxi, especially in Guanzhong. Generally, it is for children's uncles, menstrual relatives or children's mothers, as well as godparents.

Sending lanterns starts from the first Spring Festival when children are born, usually from the sixth day of the first month. Now some of them are posted on the third day. Because the Spring Festival time is limited, most people choose 369, but it is too late to send lanterns after the ninth day. Besides lanterns, there are candles and sesame candy (twist). The host family will prepare a rich banquet for the relatives who send lanterns. Nephew plays lanterns to look after uncle (old), so that people can better appreciate the deep rhyme of loess customs in northwest China. Locals should choose any day from the second day of the first month to the eighth day of the first month from the Spring Festival after their daughters get married, and send lanterns to their married daughters, which means a bright future and happiness. From 1 1 day to1day in the first month, women hang lanterns on their doors to show good luck.

The lanterns for children are slightly smaller than those for daughters, which is convenient for children to play. The children here have dozens of lanterns running around the world on the fifteenth day of the first month, full of memories. When I mentioned the scene of playing lanterns as a child, many people couldn't help showing their childhood happiness. The custom of sending lanterns is like this every year until the child 12 years old, which means "put out the lights". This is the biggest moment. After the Lantern Festival, the parents of the children should hold a banquet for their children to celebrate, and at the same time invite relatives and friends to attend.

After the lanterns are delivered, flour products will be delivered around the Dragon Boat Festival. These two are complementary. Generally, they are sent to children in the first animal year, and some places will send them to the end of the second animal year. One year after the Lantern Festival, the host family should give gifts in advance (pork, alcohol, tobacco, steamed bread, clothes for dry relatives). This time, lanterns are usually sent on the same day, mainly big palace lanterns or round lanterns, both of which are a pair, chosen with bamboo. Hang on the same day until the end of the fifteenth day of the first month. In addition, in the first year of marriage, the bride's family will also send lights. During this period, both husband and wife will go to the husband's house to hide from the lights, or they can go to relatives' homes for dinner and sightseeing. Lantern-sending culture is a long-standing folk custom and belongs to an intangible part. It is not only an activity, but also the love and hope of the elders for the younger generation.
