Kindergarten Art Exhibition, 2016

The coloration of autumn has been getting fabulous day by day. 
I hear the cheerful shouts of the children in the painting above.

Inspired by the painting, I went to the nearby park to photograph children
playing under the autumn foliage.
Unfortunately no child voices echoed when I was at the park,
but I was absorbed in the beauty and freshness of the season.

By the way, don't you feel like going on a trip,
searching for fantastic autumn colors?
On the roads, you may see autumn-colored cars or cars with autumn reflections running
like the fleeting autumn.

Weekend Reflections

The end of the day, how about staying at the Lavender Hotel?

The cute hotel workers (five-year-olds of the Lavender Class) will welcome you 
with big smiles and sincere hospitality. 

The wheeled suitcases are ready to be carried to your room.

Chandeliers made of pet bottles are on the ceiling.

The walls are decorated with the famous paintings by Laseen, Gogh, and Leonardo da Vinci.

Not only painting but also framing are children's work.

At this hotel, breads, pizzas, salads are buffet style.

To bake breads, children did it from the scratch;

they started by making "newspaper clay" first of all.

 "Newspaper clay" is made mixing newspapers torn to pieces, water, 

and some amount of starch glue.

These dishes are made of woolen yarn using "Hariko" technique

and are decorated with paper or fabric ribbons or flowers.

The mixture of bond dissolved by water and yarn are stuck to a balloon.

When the bond is dried, the balloon is taken off.

What a feast!  Let's eat!

Where shall we go next?

Y's Dandelion Class (three-year-olds) was transformed into a Fire Station.

Fire engines are made of tissue boxes and milk cartons.

This is Y's.

Certificates and Fire-extinguishers

Fire fighter's helmets are made of instant noodles cups.

The Color Guard Flags march ahead of ..... what?

A marching band!

At the Koshienguchi Kindergarten Art Exhibition,  

there were Airport, Post Office, Hospital,  Magic House, and Photo Studio

other than the Hotel and the Fire Station.

I'll pick up some other works.

These rental clothes at the Photo Studio by Margaret Class (five-year-olds)

are free of charge.

Choose the clothes you like...

.... and a bag.

The commemorative photo of the Entrance Ceremony was taken under the full-blooming Sakura in April.

Every child is amazing how he/she has grown since then.

Injectors at the Hospital made by Pansy Class (three-year-olds) will be effective to
what you really wish
like "running faster ", "more friends", "overcoming food dislikes", and anything.

Lastly these are magician's hats at the Magic House by Lily Class (four-year-olds).

Your dreams will come true by sitting on this Magic chair once

if only you never give up and make efforts.

Joint-work of all the Lily Class members

Good job, all the Kindergartners!
I'm sorry I can't cover all the wonderful works.

Thank you, teachers, for giving little children confidence
through creating these art with your support and guidance.
Thank you for giving little children big dreams
with your love, patience, and enthusiasm.

Kindergarten Art Exhibition, 2015, is here.
