So, on November 15, families who have children of these ages take part in a very old festival. This special children’s festival is called Shichi-Go-San, or “Seven-Five-Three”. On this day, the children put on their finest clothes. And every child has a long paper bag. On each bag there are pictures with the meanings of youth(年轻) and long life. When everyone is ready, the families go to a shrine(神殿). There they give thanks for the good health of the children. Outside the shrine, the parents will buy candy and toys to fill the children’s paper bags. After the families return home, the children give some of their candy to friends and relatives.
