Japanese Culture in September
September in Japan is a beautiful transition to autumn. You can use the blank space on this coloring sheet to draw these seasonal icons:
- Otsukimi (Moon Viewing): Japanese people celebrate the harvest moon by displaying “Tsukimi-dango” (rice dumplings) and Japanese pampas grass.
- Respect for the Aged Day (Keirō no Hi): A national holiday to honor elderly citizens. Why not color this calendar as a gift for your grandparents?
- Higanbana: The vibrant red Spider Lilies that bloom around the Autumnal Equinox.
