When do you bring the colored rope for the Dragon Boat Festival? When will you take it off?
1. Before sunrise in the morning of Dragon Boat Festival, adults get up and tie the Dragon Boat Festival line around the wrists, ankles and necks of sleeping children. In some places, colorful ropes can be put on the night before. It was not until July 7th, Qi's birthday, that it was untied and burned. In some places, when it rains for the first time after the Dragon Boat Festival, it is picked and thrown into the river to be washed away with the rain.

2. Children can't talk when wearing colorful ropes, and children can't break or discard them at will after wearing colorful ropes. It is said that children can avoid the harm of poisonous snakes and scorpions by wearing colored ropes. Throwing them into the river is to let the river wash away plagues and diseases and make the children's doors safe and healthy. Of course, in addition to the traditional five-color silk rope, there is also a silver lock wrapped around the child's arm. In the old society, every family hung five-color silk ropes on the lintel during the Dragon Boat Festival.
