7-5-3 A Japanese tradition in November!

In Japan, we have a celebration when a child turns 3, 5 and 7 wishing for their health and well-being.

For a girl, in the year when she turns 3 and 7, twice
but for a boy once in the year when he turns 5.

It's called Shichi-Go-San, which means 7,5,3 in Japanese.

Simple right?

This year, my son Haruki turned 5 years old so we went to the Atsuta Shrine
to celebrate. 

753 is in November.


  

We hope they are healthy for their lives
