Celebrating the milestone of turning 10
Half Coming of Age Ceremony
The day your child was born.
The first day I walked.
The first words I spoke.
The first friend I made.
A smile as she eagerly talks about the events of the day.
Your child's facial expressions, gestures, and every word they say
That one moment is irreplaceable.
With your child turning 10 and gradually taking steps towards adulthood
A day to give thanks and celebrate the past 10 years we've spent together.
It is also a day to pray for healthy growth in the future.
Special family time
For special memories.
What is the Half Coming of Age Ceremony?
The "Half Coming of Age Ceremony" is a milestone anniversary that coincides with the age of 10, exactly half of the age of 20 when the coming of age ceremony is celebrated, to celebrate the growth and memories of children over the past 10 years, and to pray for a bright future for children who are gradually growing into adults. It is also called the "Half Coming of Age Ceremony," "1/2 Coming of Age Ceremony," or "Celebration of 10 Years Old."
Although it may be incorporated as an annual event in elementary school, why not celebrate the milestone day with your family? If you don't know what to do, don't worry. Happo-en's life event producers will produce a time for the whole family to celebrate the milestone of "10 years old".
