Hello! Today, I would like to introduce about my family traditions and strange or interesting family rules. First of all, I introduce about my family. There are six people in my family. Parents, 3 older sisters and me. So, I am the youngest child. Parents and 3 older sisters work. They are very busy on ordinary days. My sisters often go Tokyo on holiday. They go shopping, go to see a movie, and eat out. So they always have big backpack slung and come home every times. My father enjoys a kitchen garden. He grows potato, sweet potato, long green onion, Japanese white radish, cucumber, tomato, eggplant every year. Luckily, we eat fresh vegetables every year. Sometimes, he grows something sweet. For example, he grew watermelon this summer. It was very delicious. I ate watermelon every day during summer vacation. My mother enjoys gardening and playing the piano on holiday. Her hobby is playing the piano. I learned piano from my mother any number of times, but I can't play the piano. I don't have music ability.
My family have interesting traditions. After dinner, we drink coffee and eat confectionery while watching variety program, news, and baseball game or soccer game. So there are many confectionery in a closet. For example, rice cracker, potato chips, and cookie. After finished eating, I brush my teeth well. My family like sports. My sisters had played track and field. I played soccer too. When the Olympics game were decided on Tokyo, we was pleased with all.Possibly, we will go to watching Olympics game 2020. Other interesting traditios is that we take a bath before we go to bed, because it is warm when we go to bed especially winnter. The items mentioned above is my family's interesting traditions.
Next, I would like to introduce my family's strange or interesting rules. Children should clean bathroom, kitchen, the front door and so on before dinner. Otherwise we can't eat dinner. If we forget cleaning, we should clean before dinner. We don't have time for the meal by just that much. Other rule is that it is father to take abath first. I think that he work hard every day. I want my farther to relax. Also we hold a family concil to decide a matter of great importance. For example, find a job, study, and so on. Then we give our opinion. Also we exchange view with a family on a matter. In short, it is the place of the exercise to give my opinion in society. I think that it is very important action.
The items mentioned above is my family's interesting traditions and strange or interesting rules. My family is pleasant family. I want to build a happy home such a my family in the future, because I love my family.
Hey Toshihiro-San:
ReplyDeleteI am also the youngest child in my family. We have tried to make a garden in our home in Canada. It wasn't easy because my sisters, who were the ones who tried to get it started, were always in class etc and no one else in the family knew how to garden.
We also take baths before bed, I think its a Asian thing. All my Caucasian friends shower in the morning. I always wonder how they can sleep without feeling clean.
Best,
Ken
