Music video about Girl's Day. There's a giant doll display in the background.
For some reason the Japanese holiday Hinamatsuri (Girl's Day, March 3rd) always sneaks up on me. But this year I'm ready, I already put up the doll display! I know it's bad luck if you have the display up past the holiday but is there anything wrong with putting it up early? Lets say early February?

I love all this japanese stuff, thank you!
when did you get a doll set? i would like to see it sometime! =o) i am planning to read a book about hinamatsuri to my students and take some pictures of the doll set at mom and dad's place to show them. =o)
Akemi,
We have the one doll that Mom, Aunty Susan, and Grandma gave Morgan for her first Girl's Day. I also have the emperor and empress wood dolls I made. They kind of look like those bride and groom dolls I made for you. We don't have a whole set. But I'm considering buying the Rement set (mini version). :)
How cute! I love the idea of a celebration like this! I will have to incorporate it into our activities! Thanks!
Love this stuff!
Our state historical museum currently has a japanese doll display, but i don't know that it's there for boys and girls day.
A friend is giving away _my_ vintage Hina dolls at barterbus.blogspot.com
you can see the picture at her blog and read her story about why she's giving it away. It is a very cool set.
I think I was smiling throughout that WHOLE video - it cracked me up!! I love how they dance and just their facial expressions - awesome. I wish I understood what they were saying.
