[Activities]
・FIH Children’s Farm Maintenance
Through working in the garden, the children learned about seasonal changes, how vegetables grow, and the importance of nature.
・“Zukkoke” Experience (Comedic Skit Workshop)
Young comedians joined as special guests, delivering an energetic performance full of physical comedy and “zukkoke” (playful pratfalls). The children laughed out loud and enjoyed interacting with the performers, gaining confidence in self-expression and experiencing the power of humor.
[Meal Gathering]
The menu for the day included curry, potatoes, and pudding. After playing energetically, the children happily enjoyed their meals, with many asking for seconds. It was a meal full of smiles and joy.
We will continue to support the future of children through food and hands-on experiences, creating opportunities for growth and connection.
