A kabuto kazari is a decoration featuring a Samurai helmet (kabuto) in the middle, with a bow and sword on either side. It is displayed in homes in Japan on "Boys' Day" (May 5th), and is said to ward off evil and bring good health for the boy children in the house. Boys' Day is one of Japan's annual festivals, and its origins lie in Chinese evil spirit eradication ceremonies-Canon
