At times of the year such as this I often wonder if there is any course of action that can be taken to help revitalize traditions such as this. It is such a shame to have so many wonderful traditions across Japan be “forgotten” (for lack of a better word).

What an interesting history of koinobori! A friend gifted us a mini tabletop stand with three koinobori when my Japanese American wife was pregnant with our son, so unfortunately that's the only koinobori display we'll have here in the U.S. I wish we have the larger koinobori streamers that we can hang outside.
