Turn Your Obon Holiday into a 10-Minute Adventure

PANITA


The Obon holiday is a season for family, traditions, and summer fun. While many spend their days visiting ancestors’ graves or joining Bon Odori dances, you can also spice up your holiday with a quick 10-minute challenge each day.

The rule is simple — spend just 10 minutes trying something new, silly, or creative. Here are some fun ideas:

 

  • Mini Dance Party – Put on your favorite summer song and dance like nobody’s watching.
  • Speed Cooking – Try making a fun summer snack (like shaved ice or fruit skewers) in 10 minutes or less.
  • Photo Hunt – Take as many creative or funny photos as you can around your neighborhood or festival.
  • Origami Race – See how many paper cranes you can fold in 10 minutes.
  • Bon Odori Twist – Learn one new Bon Odori move and add your own funny “modern” step to it.
  • Summer Memory Jar – In 10 minutes, write down as many happy summer memories as you can and keep them in a jar.
  • Festival Game Challenge – Play a quick festival game like goldfish scooping or ring toss and see how many points you can get.


It’s amazing how just 10 minutes can add laughter and new memories to your holiday. Whether you’re with friends, family, or enjoying time alone, this little challenge can make your Obon or summer break extra special.
