Hello, eveyone!

今日は子ども達がどろんこになった一日でした。園庭では泥団子を作ったり、おままごとをしたり、季節外れの雪だるまを作るお友達もいました。一方その頃ホールでは泥を絵具に見立て、大きな紙にペイントをしました。ペイントといっても筆ではなく、自分たちの手を使ってダイナミックに描きましたよ。どの子も声をかけると泥まみれの手を見せて、にっこり笑ってくれました。普段はなかなかできない活動に大喜びの子ども達でした。> Today was a day for children to get muddy. In the play yard, thechildren made mud dumplings, played make-believe, and some of them even made an unseasonal snowman! Meanwhile, in the hall, other class painted on large sheets of paper using mud as paint. They painted dynamically with their hands, not with paint brushes. When they were called thier names, they all showed their hands covered with mud and smiled. The children were delighted by this activity, which is not usually possible for them.
