This is Shokoji Nursery School in Niiza Ishigamien. I would like to share with you the intergenerational exchange that took place the other day.
The sixth exchange meeting of this year was a support event for the sports day. After greetings, we went inside and first performed the "Stag Beetle Exercise", a warm-up exercise for the kindergarten sports day.
The children moved their bodies energetically to the music, stomping around like stag beetles.
Next, we presented Cocofan with a gold medal that we all made for the sports day. Everyone's handprints are very colorful! We decorated it cutely.
It was given to a two-year-old child with the message, "Let's do our best at the sports festival!"
The bags containing the gold medals were handed out to each participant in turn.
"As a souvenir..." I received a pendant. My one-year-old was delighted.
Origami pumpkins and ghosts. Thank you!
Next, I told them, "Today is a special day!"
One of our Cocofan Day Service users is celebrating his 100th birthday this month, so we all wrote him a letter.
We borrowed a photo in advance and drew a portrait of the person, and created a "Congratulations" sea bream. The gold scales are a finger stamp for everyone.
A one-year-old child also said hello.
We received handmade "flags of the world" from Cocofan. We will decorate the nursery school's sports day! Thank you for making them with care and love.
