Fukuwarai

Fukuwarai (福笑い) is a Japanese children's game popular during New Year's celebrations.

Players are led to a table which has a paper drawing of a human face with no features depicted, and cutouts of several facial features (such as the eyes, eyebrows, nose and mouth).

While blindfolded, the players attempt to place the features onto the face in the correct positions.

The game is thought to date from the late Edo period.

It commonly used an okame-style face of a woman with large cheeks, or a hyottoko, a man with a silly expression and his mouth sticking out.
