when is girl's day?
Although days are celebrated differently than they are in Japan, it easy to see their Japanese origins. Girls usually start setting up their doll collections a couple weeks before Girlâs Day on March 3rd. People in Hawaii believe the doll collection must be taken down on March 3rd if their daughter is to marry. A special three-colored diamond-shaped rice cake, called hishi mochi, is eaten on this day. Boyâs Day is celebrated in Hawaii on the same day as it is in Japan, May 5th.
