Watch to learn the history of these traditional Japanese toys

The Resilient Okiagari Toy

Okiagari translates in Japanese to “Priest who gets back up” and is a symbol of resilience. A small weight is placed at the bottom of their hollowed center so that when they are pushed down they bounce right back. These little Japanese toys have been handcrafted from papier-mâché since the 14th century. They remain a folk craft tradition throughout Japan to this day.
