All the kids took part in making special themed crafts for our annual art
exhibit. The theme for this year’s exhibit was Japan’s Nature.



The cubs and koala class made a chestnut tree, birds and dragon fly’s.



The Penguin, Panda and Dolphin class did a great job making a volcano from
paper mache. Turtles using sticks, yarn and chestnuts. They made pictures of
their hiking trip to the mountain and also of their sweet potato picking
field trip. Also, using the chestnut shell and seeds found in the park they
made a butterfly and flower craft. Great job and lots of fun.

Today it was scheduled for our Field Trip. The kids were very excited every time it is field trip, they love to experience traveling with their friends and teachers. We went to the Bicycle Park located near Inadera station. We were lucky to have a beautiful and not so cold weather, perfect for adventure!!

This is our second time going in here. The kids are familiar with the different bicycles I was surprised they could even remember the way of going there!

At first, they bought tickets worth 100yen for a 25 minute ride all you can, we bought 3 tickets and used it consecutively. The kids quickly grabbed what ride they wanted and drove off.

Some kids still can’t ride a bicycle yet, they learned how to pedal, tried to only look forward, and using brakes. They also learned how to say direction words technically to apply in their situations.

After the long ride, the kids got hungry and we decided to eat our lunch where there is sunlight. They ate their snack afterwards.

The kids were satisfied and got their energy back, our next plan is to go to the pet store. On our way there, we saw an "Onsen"? And they offer free "Ashiyu" the kids were really excited to try, the quickly removed their shoes and socks and dipped their feet into the water. Aaaahh~~

In the Pet Store, we saw different kinds of animals, the kids love to talk to the parrot saying "Hi!" "how are you?" And expecting the parrot to talk back, and it did! But only whenever we are about to go, why parrot??

After the pet store, there is a mini slide and they played for a bit. We also took a photo infront of the Christmas tree!

The kids got tired on our way back. But they surely had fun and learned a lot of things using English as their way of communicating.

Learning English the fun way!

They can wait until teacher says "Play time! ":-D

パークへ着くと、全員が水筒をおいて、準備ができるまでちゃんと待ってます。はじめは待てずに走って行ってた子もいたけど、最近はこの通り。みんな、おりこうさん！(*^^*)

この日は、シャボン玉が大人気でした。

Oct 31st  We had a very fun day. We did a show of thier costumes, sang songs, played games, went on a parade, did trick or treat and ate cake!  We couldn't do the pinata…but we will do it on Tuesday.
Some kids cried and somekids were too excited and some kids were shy.  We went on a parade around our comnunity. Many people waved back to us. We gave them candies and we also stopped by the fire depertment.
We had a really good time!  After coming back from our parade, we did Trick or Treat.

３１日はハロウインパーティーをしました
かわいいコスチュームを着てにぎやかに始まりました
歌を歌って　コスチュームを披露して　ゲームをして
そして　初めてのパレードもしました
近所の方に　手を振ってもらったり　かわいい！って声をかけてもらったり
キャンディーを配ったり　楽しいひと時を過ごしました
コープさんの中をささっとお邪魔してしまいました。　ご迷惑をおかけしたでしょうか？
それから消防署にも立ち寄りました
帰ってきて　Trick Or　Treatをしましたね
ケーキを食べて　長い一日は終わりました
ピニャータができなかったので　火曜日にしましょうね

お疲れ様でした

We did pumpkin carving Halloween! Every year Yuki’s mom is growing the Halloween pumpkins for us. Thank you mom!
Kids help to clean out the inside of the pumpkin and Clent and Rumesh cu

Halloween is just around the corner! Are you ready?
毎年恒例のハロウィンパンプキン！　Yukiのお母さんが　子ども達の為に育ててくれています。ありがたや！今年も子ども達にはカボチャの中をきれいにしてもらいました。　楽しむ子　いやがる子　色々ですが楽しいのはかわりありません！ご覧ください！

Today’s menu was Ramen [どんぶり].
The kids helped peeling and cutting the eggs. The little kids broke up the Asian cabbage and the older kids chopped the green onions.

After the park, they were all hungry for Ramen.
I think they like it.

Today we visit to fire station at 中山台出張所.
はしご車に消防車にショベルカーとかを運ぶための大きなトラックもありました。
消防士さんが私達がくるということで英語の勉強もしてくださっていてとても嬉しかったです。
火事は水だけでなく泡で消した方が良く消えること
火事の際の逃げ方やトラックの中や装置してある機材の説明もしてくれました。
子ども達用のユニフォームも着せていただき
楽しい時間を過ごせました。
優しい消防士さんありがとうございます！

子どもたちの中に未来の消防士さんがいるかも！

10月は大忙し
特に今年は７月のハイキングを10月に延期したので
芋掘りに引き続き
ハイキングに金曜日行きました。
天気は前日の雨で心配しましたが、お天気もよく暑い位でした。

夏の台風で数カ所土砂崩れの為例年とは違うコースで登りました。
ドルフィンズが張り切る
負けてはいられないパンダたち
ペンギン君は体力を消耗しないようにか無口で黙々と登っていた。

毎日の公園までの散歩は確かに子どもたちの力となっている

弱音を吐く子はいなかった

素晴らしい

約一時間半のハイキング

美味しいお弁当を頂き
広場で遊び
室内では手づくりの玩具で遊び
実に楽しい１日だったね

They love to go on a picnic!
They love to eat outside!

今月2回目のピクニック！
みんなしっかり歩く、歩く。
公園に着くと、長い滑り台にみんな一直線。
しっかり遊んだ後は、お楽しみのランチタイム。
外で食べるオニギリは格別みたいです。

10/2の遠足日。
CubとKoalaちゃん達は五月台の上にあるOctopus parkへピクニックに行きました。
坂道をひたすら登ること25分。
大きなタコの滑り台が見えてくると、みんな「I can see an Octopus!!」と大興奮。
荷物をおいて元気に走って行きました。
タコの滑り台を駆け回り、アスレチック並みのタイヤ登りをしたり、それぞれに楽しんでいました。
お弁当のおにぎりを食べていると、蟻がシートの上に上がってきて大騒ぎ。
興味深げに見る子もいれば、怖くて落ち着いて食べれない子も居たり。笑
