One day at ABC playgroup

We had so much fun dancing, singing, playing, enjoying games and craft after reading "The Very Hungr Caterpillar."
After the program, Wakana asked me to read "Brown Bear, Brown Bear, What Do You See?."

Japanese Children's Day

May 5th is "Children's Day" in Japan, and it's usually a celebration for boys as a counterpart of Girl's Festival on March 3rd. My parents, Gen's grand parents in Okayama, gave a gorgeous Samurai Doll for Gen last year, and we have decided to display it from the end of April to the beginning of May every year.

On Children's Day this year, we were thinking about entertaining Gen with fancy dinner or big cake, but we ended up with playing with him all day long. What he really likes to do is to play with his parents. So we spent the day with Gen, letting him play with whatever he wants to play, and having so much fun together.

May 5th is literally "Children's Day" for our family. Gen's the boss!
