Disneyland Park
Main Street, U.S.A.
Stop by to see the Children’s Day window display outside of the Emporium! It pays homage to Japanese Children’s Day celebrated on May 5th, when families display koinobori also known as “carp streamers” to symbolize determination and success, and Kabuto helmets which represent strength and vitality. There are also other games featured from various Asian, Native Hawaiian, and Pacific Islander cultures.
