厚木北児童館 Christmas Decorations

秋晴れの空の下お散歩がてら厚木北児童館のおひさまタイムに参加しました。0歳児から3歳児までの日本人のグールプの中に入りおままごとをしたり自動車遊びにしたりして過ごししました。思ったよりすんなり中に入る事ができ安心しました。この年齢の子供たちは人種や言葉など関係なく最初はぎこちなく近いより遊び始めました。児童館から帰るのはいやで道路でだだをこねて私たちを困らせましたがおなかがすいていたのでしょうがなくポテトに戻りました。来週はクリスマスの飾りを作ろうと思います。先生は参加者のお母さんです。すごく楽しみにしています。

Mother from Denmark came today and brought with her more Christmas decoration crafts. Using 2 different color papers, you trace the templates of the pictures that you want to make and cut it using a scissors. After that, you weave the 2 pieces of paper together and it is like magic, you get really nice heart shape pictures. There are also some very simple templates that kids can make. We plan to do some of this next week so do come and join us. Nice weather today. We walked to the Kita Kids Community Center and unlike the previous time, there are lots of mothers and kids today. There is a person today from the Atsugi City Parenting Support Center and the teacher sang some songs and read some stories to the kids. No wonder it is so crowded today. We also dropped by the Kita Community Center to inquire about "Ai Ai" playgroup as one of the mother from India is interested to bring her boy there. After lunch, we ate some delicious Denmark Christmas treats that the mother from Denmark brought. Recipes of the treats will be posted later. Try it out if you like.
