Boy's Day Celebration in Hawaii! On May 5th, Japanese families throughout Hawaii display beautiful Koi (carp) windsocks outside their homes. Called Koi-nobori, each streamer traditionally symbolizes a son in the household. The largest Koi at the top represents the eldest son, while the littlest at the bottom represents the youngest boy.
Watching these colorful windsocks flapping in the wind reminds one of the vigor, strength and perseverance of the koi as they swim upstream against powerful currents. Koi are also known for their longevity. They can live for as long as 50 years in the wild and have been reported to live even longer in captivity. Thus the Koi is a fitting symbol for the traits desired in sons.
We do carry these windsocks year round, as people continue to buy them for all occasions.
