 to each of the questions from 6 to 10.
 In Africa, people celebrate with joy the birth of a new baby. The Pygmies would sing a birth-song to the child. 
 In Kenya, the mother takes the baby strapped to her back into the thorn enclosure where the cattle are kept. There, 
 her husband and the village elders wait to give the child his or her name.
 In West Africa, after the baby is eight days old, the mother takes the baby for its first walk in the big, wide 
 world, and friends and family are invited to meet the new baby. In various African nations, they hold initiation 
 ceremonies for groups of children instead of birthdays. When children reach a certain designated age, they learn the 
 laws, beliefs, customs, songs and dances of their tribes. Some African tribes consider that children from nine to 
 twelve are ready to be initiated into the grown-up world. They may have to carry out several tests.
 Maasai boys around thirteen years old to seventeen undergo a two-stage initiation. The first stage lasts about 
 three months. The boys leave their parents' homes, paint their bodies white, and are taught how to become young 
 warriors. At the end of this stage, they have their heads shaved and they are also circumcised. At the second stage, 
 the young warriors grow their hair long and live in a camp called a “manyatta” where they practice hunting the wild 
 animals that might attack the Maasai herds. This stage may last a few years. When they are ready, they will marry 
 and become owners of large cattle herds like their fathers. The girls are initiated when they are fourteen or fifteen. 
 They are taught by the older women about the duties of marriage and how to care for babies. Soon after that they 
 are married and lead a life similar to that of their mothers.
