🌸 Ohisama Friday Japanese Club — 19th June ☀️

We had a wonderful afternoon at our children's Japanese club, and we were so happy to welcome lots of new members to the group!

This week's theme was Father's Day & the Summer Solstice ☀️

📅 Date practice — We warmed up by learning to say the day, date and day of the week in Japanese, looking at today, tomorrow and the day after. We also asked the big questions: when is Father's Day, and when is the summer solstice? ☀️

🗣️ "Self-introduction" — Each child shared their name and their favourite food in Japanese.

🚶 Aisatsu (greetings) game — The children walked around the room, and each time they met a friend they did a fun action together. We played it in rounds: making eye contact 👀 → saying "Hajimemash*te" (nice to meet you) → introducing themselves → and finishing with a jump! 🦘

💌 Father's Day cards — Everyone made a special handmade card to take home.

This session was also a special Open Day for families whose little ones will be starting Reception next year — if that's you, we'd love to welcome you to Ohisama! ☀️

12th June 2026

“Kaekko (Swapping & Shopping) “

The children learned about the shopping activity and how they could earn points through the “Challenge” activities.

They played a name game in which one child called out another child’s name and clapped twice. When a child heard their name, they then called out the name of the next person.

The children were divided into three groups and sang “The Frog Song” in a round.

Next, they worked with a partner to appraise the items they had brought and assigned point values to them.

The shopping activity then began. Everyone looked for items they liked and purchased them using the points they had earned.

After they finished shopping, some also had the opportunity to try being shopkeepers and selling items to their friends.

Everyone seemed excited about the variety of items they were able to buy and thoroughly enjoyed the activity.

5th June 2026

Today’s theme was Sports Day.

We started with Rajio Taiso, a traditional Japanese warm-up exercise.
Then we split into the red team and the white team, and the sports day began!

First was the three-legged race (a race where two people run with one leg tied together).
Next came the ball toss, followed by the spoon race, an action game, and finally, the relay race!

Under clear skies, it was a very enjoyable time.

For the July 15th Ohisama activity, we started with a warm-up game where everyone called out each other’s names.

Then, using our bodies, we created hiragana characters and guessed what words they were expressing.

Finally, we used recycled materials from home to make crafts.

By the hiragana activity and the recycled-material crafts, kids showed so much creativity and ingenuity that even the adults were impressed and kept saying, “Wow, that’s clever!” 😀

8th May 2026

🍙 This week's Ohisama class was ALL about ONIGIRI! 🍙

We kicked off with self-introductions and telling our favorite onigiri flavours, then read an adorable picture book about how to make them.

Then came the FUN part—onigiri trivia! 🧠
🔸 Why don't convenience store onigiri get hard?
🔸 What was the best-selling onigiri type in Japan last year?
🔸 Which konbini chain pioneered onigiri sales back in the 70s?

✨ HIGHLIGHT: The kids made their own konbini-style onigiri! Everyone brought a special filling, wrapped it up with proper nori and plastic (just like the professionals!), and walked away with their own homemade masterpiece. 🤤
