As per the Sakat Chauth vrat story, it is said that a potter lived in the kingdom of King Harishchandra and his earthen pots were not cooked properly in the fire, due to which he could not sell his pots. He then went to a priest and shared his problem with him. The priest advised him to put some utensils in the water and worship a child while making pots. It solved his problem and the day was called Sakat Chauth. So it is believed that this vrat is observed for the protection of children by worshipping Ganesh ji. After that day, mothers started observing a Sakat Chauth fast for the safety of their children.
