紙風船 kamifūsen: Japanese paper balloons from Kyoto
For the Year of the Dragon we have an especially designed dragon!
Ingenious Kyoto paper designers Rokuhichido have made this cute character into a paper balloon - a kamifūsen.
Simply inflate the paper balloon by blowing into it, then complete the inflation by patting it into the air with your hand - the physics behind this actually draws air into the balloon to complete its inflation! It's a fun game too!
This is a simple Japanese toy made of paper pasted together. We recommend hanging it up and displaying it (there is no string attached). It's also a cute small gift!
*Not suitable for babies and small children under 3*
