Celebrating Hina-Masturi in Japan

The Japanese Doll Festival (Hina-matsuri), or Girls' Day, is held on March 3. Platforms covered with a red carpet are used to display a set of ornamental dolls (雛人形, hina-ningyō) representing the Emperor, Empress, attendants, and musicians in traditional court dress of the Heian period.

Richie celebrated this festival with pomp in his nursery. They made dolls depicting the prince and princess and hung them on either side of a straw. The faces of the dolls were really worth admiring.
Some kids put mouth on top and eyes below, while some put them on the side. But whatever it was, their creativity was at its best. :)
