A Makura-Nage ( Japanese : 枕投げ, まくらなげ ) is a game from Japan in which children throw pillows at each other. A typical occasion to play it is after the futon are prepared (especially after the official lights-off time) in summer camp .

While a pillow fight mainly takes the form of beating each other with pillows, Japanese Makura-Nage is a game in which players mainly throw pillows to each other. The word " makura " means "pillow", " nage " means "throwing".

There were no rules for Makura-Nage, but today some Japanese ryokan hold Makura-Nage Games (まくら投げ大?) for advertisement.

In many anime and manga , a Makura-Nage scene creates a nostalgic atmosphere when describing children.
