Example from . Yoshida Shrine 吉田神社 - Kyoto .
「だるまみくじ」の名前の通り、だるまの中におみくじが入っております。

Mikuji, O-Mikuji 御御籤/御神籤
(sacred lots)
Generally known as o-mikuji, these messages written on a thin piece of washi, replies from Shinto or Buddhist deities, are used to tell the fortunes of those who visit shrines or temples with their problems. The visitor draws a numbered stick from the small opening at one end of a prism-shaped container and exchanges the stick for a mikuji of the corresponding number.
If the fortune is less than favorable, the visitor customarily ties the mikuji around a tree branch or in a designated location near the temple or shrine in hope that circumstances will eventually improve.

The Daruma Mikuji also come as small wooden figures.
This one is from Temple Manpuku-Ji.

There is even a recipe for Haiku Fortune Cookies!
"Haikookies" are fortune cookie-type cookies.
"Type 24 haiku onto thin strips of paper. You can use the haiku from the books suggested below, or write your own haiku: three lines long, with the first line 5 syllables, the second line 7 syllables, and the third line 5 again. Put the haiku aside until later.
Next use
3 egg whites
1/2 cup white sugar
1/4 cup brown sugar
1/2 cup cake flour
1/2 teaspoon vanilla
And read the rest here, from Susan Branch's scrumptious cookbook Vineyard Seasons:

And one more LINK to these cookies by Alexis M. Iffert
For my haiku project, I decided to make fortune cookies and cleverly insert my haiku inside of them.

The temple 三宝寺 in Kyoto has about 325 of these wooden dolls in its precincts, maybe the ones with a bad fortune telling slip in them. The priest of the temple cleans them once a year and puts them on the shelf above the well.
