Children's Day
After the Edo period(1603~1867), 5th May is the boys festival for expressing the hope that each
boy in the family will grow up healthy, strong and find happiness, it is also for expressing thanks to mothers. This day is national holidays in Japan and all the kids having fun.
Kabuto:warrior figures are set up in the house during this festival and huge fish called Koi-nobori like a streamers are fastened to poles, just like a fish swimming in the sky.
I have to pass on the Japanese tradition to my boys who never seen real Koi-nobori and haven't been to festival. I hope one day we can visit Japan in May.
