Shichi Go San (The Seven-Five-Three Festival) is a celebration for seven, five, three
year-old children on November 15th. The age 3,5, and 7 are odd numbers
which are considered to be lucky. Parents dress their children (Girls of
age 3 & 7 and boys of age 3 & 5) in their best clothes and visit
shrines. They pray for the good health and the happy future of their children.
