In olden days,mom's from each and every house used to feed their child by showing moon as an attractive thing. It is applicable only for children between 1 to 5 years of age. The reason behind this thing was,if a child want to see moon it should see above. So by seeing above the food might digest easily. This was the one and only reason behind this. In local language it was called as 'nilachhoru' Have you heard this before anywhere?

No, I've never heard this before. When my grandson was a little boy, his mama would take him outdoors, to show him all the stars in the sky. Zachary loved it!
