The peculiar manner in which we worship him by rapping at our forehead with our knuckles and pulling at the earlobes with crossed hands etc. helps nadi-suddhi or purification of the nadis and puts our psychic powers in proper tune for his worship.
The materials of worship for Ganesha, the dhruv-grass, arka-flower and leaves etc. which are the least coveted by common people, have a lesson. No part of creation is repellent to God. He is much pleased with the lowest of creation as with the highest.
Breaking coconuts before Ganesha coaxes us to break the hard nut of our ego before God.

GANESH IS WORSHIPED THE WORLD OVER
In Greece, the Greek God of wisdom is known as Janus, is pictured with the head of an elephant.
In Mexico, the elephant headed, human torso God is worshipped.
Nepal : Lord Ganpati is known as Suryanganpati
Cambodia : He is known as Prahaganpati
In Japan : Vinayakshra

Limmy ego is the key here.
The snake around shiv's neck too represents ego. It is under control and lies quietly around his neck.
Kali catching Raktabheej's blood too signifies the control over the ego. When the blood touched the earth it multiplied
So does our ego . when left free multiplies But controlling it we become more and more humble.
