The
Outdooring Ceremony
Eight days after
a Ga child is born, the baby is officially presented to the community.
The child is
introduced, and everyone brings gifts for the newborn baby.
In the old days,
symbolic gifts were given. For example, a small amount of money might
be given, to remind the child of the importance of being careful with
her money and other possessions.
Nowadays, many
gifts are given, just like at baby showers in the United States.
