Celebrate Asian American and Pacific Islander Heritage Month and get ready to celebrate the Japanese holiday Children's Day with this Japanese Carp Windsock craft!

Kodomo no Hi, or Children's Day, is a Japanese holiday celebrated on May 5th to show respect for all children's personalities and celebrate their happiness.  Families fly koinobori, or carp windsocks, to express hope that their children will be healthy and strong, just like the carp that swims upstream.
