March  (Yayoi)
The Doll Festival
March 3 is Hina-matsuri or the Doll Festival, a celebration for girls.  On this day, parents wish for their young girls’ healthy growth and happiness, and have hina arare (sweet snack) and a feast at home.
Families with young girls display hina dolls from the beginning of February through March 3 every year.   Legend has it if you put the hina dolls back late, your girls will be married late. Girls are raised with care and bring their hina dolls( which are carefully wrapped and stored when not on display) with them when they get married.
