Baskets were made from all kinds of natural material, mostly woven to keep them as light as possible.
- quote
A basket is a container which is traditionally constructed from stiff fibres, which can be made from a range of materials, including wood splints, runners, and cane. While most baskets are made from plant materials, other materials such as horsehair, baleen, or metal wire can be used.
Baskets are generally woven by hand. Some baskets are fitted with a lid, others are left open.
Baskets serve utilitarian as well as aesthetic purposes. Some baskets are ceremonial, that is religious, in nature. While baskets are typically used for storage and transport, specialized baskets are as sieves, for cooking, for processing seeds or grains, for tossing gambling pieces, rattles, fans, fish traps, laundry, and other uses.
The phrase
"to hell in a handbasket" means to rapidly deteriorate.

Kagome Kagome (かごめかごめ, or 籠目籠目)
is a Japanese children's game and the song associated with it. One player is chosen as the oni (literally demon or ogre, but similar to the concept of "it" in tag) and sits blindfolded (or with their eyes covered). The other children join hands and walk in circles around the oni while chanting the song for the game. When the song stops, the oni tries to name the person standing directly behind them.
The song is a subject of much interest because of its cryptic lyrics which vary from region to region, and many theories exist about its meaning and origins, but neither have been definitely explained.
かごめかごめ 籠の中の鳥は -- Kagome kagome / Kago no naka no tori wa
いついつ出やる 夜明けの晩に -- Itsu itsu deyaru / Yoake no ban ni
鶴と亀が滑った -- Tsuru to kame ga subetta.
後ろの正面だあれ -- Ushiro no shoumen daare

zarukaburi inu 笊かぶり犬 dog wearing a basket
The dog is from papermachee, the basked woven from bamboo.
The basked is an amulet for raking in good luck and a healthy upbringing of small children.
The Chinese character for bamboo basket 笊 is a pun with the meaning of the compuond images of the character, bamboo on top of a dog, which is similar to "smile" 笑. This toy will keep the children laughing.
The auspicious basket will also let the wind pass through it, so when it is hung over the baby bed, it will prevend the child from getting a stuffed nose or catch a cold.
When the children grow up, they play with these dolls and eventually break them and tear them apart. This shows the parents that the child has grown strong and healthy and they are happy about it and do not scold the kids.
