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.
