This week we learned about all these tooth traditions. I am going to be doing Turkey and China. There maybe be similarity's and some differences. I am going to be telling you what they do and why i choose them in the paragraphs.
Turkeys tooth tradition is... there parents believe that their child's lost tooth holds within their future. If they want their child to become a great soccer player, they will bury the tooth in a soccer filed. The reason i choose this is because If they really became a soccer player then i would love to do that with what I want to be when i grow up. This is different from the u.s because when we do it we put it in like water and some people don't then they put it under there pillow and wish for a lot of money. Some similarity's are that well there parents wish that they will become this like a soccer player, well we are wishing for a lot of money to bye something.
China's tooth tradition: Chinese kids put their upper teeth at the foot of their beds and put their lower teeth on the roof. It is hoped that this will make their permanent teeth grow faster. The reason i choose china is because it was interesting and because it would be cool to do this. It also makes them hope that it would grow faster so they can see what it looks like when they see there permanent tooth. Some differences are is that when we lose a tooth we are not that happy but, they are happy about the money and they not hope for a better tooth or hope that there tooth will come in faster. There are not really things that are slimier about China and the u.s.a.
