My presentation
"Traditional New Year's Day In Japan"
1."Hatumoude" The practice of visiting a shrine or temple at the beginning of the New Year is called Hatumoude.
We go to shrines or temples on New Year's DayIt is traditional for Japanese people. If the good weather is good, people ofren dress up or wear Kimono.
And we went to shrines or temples ,we usually pull out Omikuji.
Omikuko means read me future. (e.g.) A lucky year for me or an unlacky for me...
2."Toshikoshi Soba" is traditional practice. We eat Toshikoshi Soba in 31 Dec,and we have to finish eating until 12pm 31 Dec . If leave anything,it seems unlucky with money.
"Jyoya No Kane" Buddist temples ring thir bells 108 times on midnigth during 31 Dec to 1 January. These bell rings are colled as Jyoya NO Kane.
3."Osechi Ryouri" Traditional Japanese Food
We eat Osechi Ryouri. It is traditional food prepared in advance for eating during the first three days of New Year and containing various specified ingredients.
4."Otoshidama" On New Year's Day we get money as a New Year's gift from parents to child or grandfather and grandmother. This is known as Otoshidama. The amount of money given depends on the age of the child.
"Nenga Jyou" a New Year's greeting card.
It is similar to the Western sending of Chrismas cards. The end of December and the beginning of January are the busiest times for the Japanese post officer, because people send these postcards so that they arrive on the 1st of January. The Japanese have a custom of sending New Year's DAy postcards to their friends and relatives.
