Dolls for boys? Interesting.
In Poland we celebrate boy'd day on September 30th :)
I've never heard of a "boy's day." I surely hope it does not come to the US...we've got enough "days" that I get dazed!
Do boys play with these dolls or are they to collect and look at and hope that they'll increase in value as the years go by?
What is Boy's Day? Those dolls are lovely!
Thanks all.
It is a day celebrate boy's growing.
Families who have little boy, display doll( include miniature armor,head piece of samurai) in their house.
Veeery interesting, Nobu. Another insight of the fascinating japanese life!
