Hello. This is Shokoji Nursery School Kita-Urawa.
This is my first post this year. Thank you for your continued support.
Now that January is here, the Hoshi group is now just three months away from graduating from kindergarten.
Our conversations with our friends have expanded, and we can see them growing together, caring for each other and sometimes even clashing.
This time we played a game with rules called "musical chairs."

Everyone was excited even before the homeroom teacher started his explanation!
I wonder if he remembered watching the Hoshi group's heated performance last year?
Walking and stopping to the music...


At the end, a psychological battle ensues with the remaining seats at stake...
Both teams were determined to win, which made for some tense and exciting watching the match.

I felt like crying, both because I was happy to become the champion and because I was upset that I couldn't sit in that chair for the last time, but I held back and ended the competition with the determination to do my best next time.
Even the children who couldn't find a seat cheered on the remaining children by clapping in the cheering section.

By incorporating games with rules, I was able to see the children's growth in many different ways.
I would like to continue incorporating more of this in the future.
