For this reason, kodomo yamakasa are moved separately from actual yamakasa in many festivals so that children can become familiar with a festival by participating from a young age, which contributes to the training of successors for the festival.
このため、子供の頃から運行に直接参加させて祭に親しませ、後継者を育成していくために、本来の山笠とは別に子供山笠を運行している祭も多い。
