Children's Day on May 5th is a special day in Japan to celebrate kids and their happiness. Families fly colorful carp-shaped windsocks called "koinobori" outside their homes. Each carp represents a child, and they are symbols of strength and courage. Kids often make samurai warrior helmets out of paper and enjoy special foods like rice cakes wrapped in oak leaves. This day encourages families to appreciate their children and wish them good health and success. It's a fun time for kids to play and feel special while everyone focuses on how important and valuable they are.
