The rule is very simple. First, you pay a small amount of money, such as one dollar. Second, you pick up one piece of folded paper in a box where there are many pieces of folded paper. Third, you open the paper and check the number written on it. Finally, you can get a gift according to the number that you got.The numbers are usually form one to one hundred; the smaller the number, the better the present.The left picture is what my daughter got on Kujibiki at a local festival yesterday. Her number was two although her little brother got almost No. 100. What she got, a bag of one of Disney characters, has been attracting her recently. I was very happy to see my daughter excited.
When it comes to Kujibiki, I think that she is always lucky, as is her mother. It seems like good lucks run in the women of my familiy. That means I am lucky as well, because I am always close to them.
