Are you looking forward to making your child’s first birthday a memorable one? It may seem like second nature to make the first year of a child’s life celebrated in a sentimental manner, but in Singapore, sentiment and tradition go way beyond your expectations! Make your child’s first birthday an unforgettable experience by incorporating the Singaporean tradition known as a choosing ceremony. But first, let us define what a choosing ceremony is and why it is important to include it for a child’s first birthday.

Before you even ask, there are already professional services that conduct this ceremony. If you want a high-quality service, you need to pick the right professionals for the job. Fortunately, professional services such as Mr. Bottle’s Kids Party have been doing this for more than 4 years now!

What is a Choosing Ceremony(抓周)?

A choosing ceremony (抓周)is a Chinese tradition where a child’s future profession is predicted through an interactive activity for the child. However, it is worth noting that although this is a popular tradition in China, there are very similar ceremonies like this from Korea, Vietnam, so any race and ethnicity is welcome to conduct it! 

The ceremony involves having an assortment of items typically connected with a profession and letting the child independently choose what item he/she likes best. The child chooses 3 items out of the 12-16 to see what kind of profession he/she may want in the future based on the symbolism for each item. Below are some of the items recommended by Mr. Bottle’s Kids Party:

  • Stethoscope – used by a doctor
  • Pencil – used by an artist
  • Calculator – represents the arithmetic abilities of a businessman
  • Light Bulb – represents Thomas Edison, which means the child is going to be an inventor
  • Bread – represents becoming a chef or having a good or long life

If you want other items to be included in the selection, Mr. Bottle’s Kids Party will allow you to pick custom choices as well!
