In my country, some local people have a big celebration for a little girl’s birthday to young adulthood. These are aged 1, 7 and 18. It was a celebration like a typical debut that can be seen on different social media. I am not also sure with the other Filipinos if they still continue this practice. My little niece will have her big celebration three months from now. The family was so excited for it. As early as of this month, we are trying to find a perfect venue for her 7th birthday. She was about to enter a stage of knowing what is right or wrong.
“Do you have this kind of celebration for girls?”
“Are there any special practice in celebrating it?”

In fact, I wasn't aware that little girls have three biggest celebrations. Not until my mother told me about it.I am just aware that young lady celebrates her 18th birthday. For boys, they usually have a big celebration at the aged of 21.

I personally think that it is still an option of the Filipinos not to indulge in a big party. But then, my little niece's granny seems a bit traditional with such practice. Moreover, we also think that my little niece deserves to experience it, too.

i think a birthday celebration of 7 years is practiced here in our country because apparently, 7 years is the first elementary grade level and 7 years is the age apt for that.
