とうもろこし畑でのびのび体験！〜4歳児Starクラスの1日〜
少し曇り空で寒い日でしたが、4歳児Starクラスの子どもたちは、園長が運転する園バスに乗ってとうもろこし畑へ出かけました。
バスに揺られて約20分、佐伯にある農家の畑に到着です。広がる畑の中で苗植えをしたり、土の感触を楽しんだりと、自然に親しむ貴重な体験ができました。
夏の収穫が今からとても楽しみです。畑の周辺では、春の訪れを感じながらつくしとりも楽しみました。
「ここにもある！」「いっぱい生えてる！」と、子どもたちは目を輝かせながら夢中で探していました。その後は隣接する竹林で筍掘りにも挑戦。
落ちている木の棒を使い、自分たちの手でも掘り進め、真剣な表情で取り組んだ結果、なんと11本の筍を収穫しました。また、畑の一角にある池では、鯉への餌やりも楽しみました。
水の中を泳ぐ鯉に夢中になりながら、ゆったりとした時間を過ごしました。肌寒い中でも子どもたちは元気いっぱいに体を動かし、たくさんの自然とふれあう一日となりました。次は、Sunクラスの子どもたちが訪れる予定です。どんな発見があるか、楽しみですね！そして、今日のランチは収穫した筍を使った筍ご飯と、筍入りの汁物を楽しみます。
Corn Field Fun with the 4-Year-Old Star Class
It was a little cloudy and cold, but the children were excited to go to a corn farm. They rode the school bus to the farm, and the principal was the driver.
After about 20 minutes, they arrived at the farm in Saeki Ward.At the farm, the children planted baby corn plants and felt the moist soil in their hands. They had a fun time with nature. Everyone is excited to pick the corn in summer during harvest! Near the farm, they also found horsetail plants. The children said, “I found one!” and “There are so many!” They looked very happy.Next, they went to a bamboo forest and dug for bamboo shoots. They used sticks, twigs, and their bare hands to dug out the bamboo shoots. They worked in teams and found eleven bamboo shoots all together! Then, they went to a small pond and fed some koi fish. They watched the fish swim and felt very calm and happy.Even though it was a cold day, the children moved their bodies and played a lot in nature. Next time, the 5-Year Old Sun Class will visit the farm. We are excited to see what they will find!For lunch on this day, the children will eat bamboo shoot rice and soup with bamboo shoots they picked. Yummy! Yummy!
