In Japan,children who are three,five or seven years old are thought (被认为) to be lucky. So,on November 15,families who have children of these ages take part in (参力卩) 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 best clothes. And every child has a long paper bag. On each bag there are pictures with meanings (意思) 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 make the children 's paper bags full. After the families go home,the children give some of their candy to friends and relatives. These people often give presents to them.

      Then,the day usually ends (结束) with a party.
