Whenever the first tooth of our baby peeks through, we celebrate it by giving a party to our family, usually a few months before 1st birthday. We have some traditions to it. We place a number of items representing occupations on the floor (ie a sthetescope for a doctor, a calculator for a financial analyst or accountant, a book for academic career, maybe a laptop for a computer engineer, scissors for a tailor, brush for an artist etc). The first object the baby selects tells you what occupation he/she will choose in the future. My daughter selected the sthetescope so we will know by experience if this works 🙂
