The story of Momotaro is very famous in Japan among all children.
This is the story of a little boy born from a peach !
We have read the story together,illustrated the main events and learned some vocabulary.
MOMO -peach-もも
SARU-monkey-さう
INU-DOG-いぬ
KIJI-PHEASANT-きじ
etc...
and pretty soon,we hope to be able to know the peom MOMOTARO SAN.

Kawaii Club /beginners group

Konnichiha !

As X'mas is approching,we have been relaxing at Kawaii Club.
Have a look at our last session of the Year 2010,wearing kimonos,yukatas and geisha make-up !
This was a fun lesson !
We also talked about how Christmas is celebrated in Japan .It is not a family celebration like in Europe but on the contrary,NewYear celebrations are a very important time.
Cooking special Newyear's meals with the family and going to the shrine at night until the first sun of the year rises...these are of a great importance in japanese life.
