  • A three-and-a-half-year-old boy waits to be circumcised at his home in Istanbul, Turkey. He is younger than the usual circumcision age because his parents want him to undergo the ritual together with his older brother.  Custom dictates that boys are dressed up as small sultans or princes at their circumcision, and the cloaks and hats and sceptres of the two boys are scattered on the sofa on which the boy is sitting. The boy will be circumcised by a licensed circumciser.

  • Two young boys and their older brother just before their shichi-go-san in the Meiji Jingu shrine, in Tokyo, Japan. During shichi-go-san, literally seven-five-three, parents dress their daughters aged three and seven and sons aged five in traditional costume and take them to a Shinto shrine to be blessed. Sometimes boys perform the ceremony at the age of three, though in bygone times they were not supposed to wear hakama trousers until they were older.
