Traditional Japanese Kids Ceremony | Shichi-Go-San

Kimono Mom -- Nov 27

This is the day of Shichi-Go-San, a traditional kids ceremony in Japan. We started early in the morning for preparations and tried to get her to wear a kimono, but she didn't want to, so we went to the shrine in her regular clothes and had a prayer. We’re gonna spend the day celebrating her growth with our family.

Shichi-Go-San is a Traditional Japanese ceremony that celebrate the growth of children when they're 3, 5, 7 years old. Most people go to a hair salon to have their hair done and dressed kimono, take pictures at a photo studio, visit a shrine, and have a celebratory meal with their family.
