I don’t know about Taiyuan, but I’ll talk about Yuncheng.

Because Yuncheng has undergone some changes recently.

It turns out that about seven or eight years ago, the trend of over-twelve-year-olds has emerged in Yuncheng. Generally, there are around 30 tables, and a certain fixed procedure has been formed. An etiquette company is involved in the operation, and it has caused a stir.

Children compete with each other.

One of the more mature customs is that at the banquet, grandma and grandma put on collars for the children (a large steamed steamed bun with Shanxi characteristics), and the seven aunts and eight aunts use RMB to wear collars for the children.

The necklace of the child should also be worn around the neck, the child should recite a speech of thanks, and cut the cake with his parents (the cake for the twelve-year-old also gets bigger and bigger, some are one meter in diameter, and some are in the shape of a twelve-story tower). Generally, invitations are required.

A table of classmates, the students should put thick cream on the face of the birthday boy; the parents should also put cream on the face of the child's parents.

But this year, that is, recently, various schools in Yuncheng City have simultaneously launched an initiative to celebrate their birthdays frugally.

All students were also required to sign a promise, mainly not to hold a banquet.

As a result, some parents want to hold a banquet, but their children are unwilling or afraid to attend.

Nowadays, most parents have canceled the custom of holding banquets for their children after they turn twelve.

People in Yuncheng are currently looking for new ways to make their children's twelfth birthdays more meaningful.
