Celebrate Hinamatsuri with a Creative March 2026 Calendar
Welcome to March! In Japan, this month is famous for Hinamatsuri (雛祭り), also known as the Doll’s Festival or Girl’s Day. This “Reverse Coloring” calendar allows you to explore this beautiful tradition through your own creativity.
What is “Reverse Coloring”?
Unlike traditional coloring pages, the colors are already there for you! Use a black liner or a gold pen to draw the outlines of the Hina-ningyo (dolls), the Bonbori (lanterns), and the delicate peach blossoms. It is a mindful and relaxing way to create your own unique piece of art.
