Hina Matsuri is the Japanese festival for young girls. On this day, families with girls wish their daughters a happy life. This festival is also called "Doll Festival". On March 3rd every year, parents will display(陈列)dolls inside their house, usually in the sitting room. People always cover the doll shrine(神龛) with red cloth. Some families display them for one day only, but many display them as early as mid-February. The children put Japanese-rice cakes and beautiful flowers in the shrine.
During Hina Matsuri, girls wear kimonos(和服) and eat special food such as sweets, sushi and shirozake. Shirozake is a sweet drink and doesn't have alcohol(酒精), so it is OK for children to have. Family members also sing the Hina Matsuri Song to celebrate. This festival lets us know parents' wish for their children's happiness is for ever.
