[1]A habit tends to be things like smoking, showering in the morning, or staying up late. "Custom" is used for things that have a cultural significance.
[2] Unlike in Japanese, the placement of the descriptors or clarifying clauses is less forgiving, so we prefer to have the descriptors close to the thing being described: Obon in Japanese means plates (that) we put something on for our ancestors. Also, earlier in the sentence, you used "we" so the possessive pronoun needs to match (i.e. "our ancestors").
[3] Or: "has various ways to respect ancestors."
[4] "Experience" is a noun, and "experience of xx-ing" roughly translates to the 〜ことがある form. To use as a verb, you can also say: "have experienced dancing..."
[5]ちょっと in this case translates more closely as "rather" or "quite".
