hidamari no tami

One of my Christmas presents is a 'hidamari no tami' roughly translated as 'the sunlight people'. It's a happy face figurine with a solar power strip on its base so that its smiley head tilts side to side when there is sunlight. It sits atop my bedside drawer which sits right by the window. It's night now. The happy face is not tilting side to side. But it's still smiling. There's a switch that has the option 'tomaru' meaning 'stop' if you find his head tilting side to side to be annoying. As I read the way I'm writing about it it sounds kind of freakish but it's really quite a cheerful cute little thing.
