【Kodomoen】 Dragonfly Eyes
When I went to work this morning, the parking lot, and the entrance were full of dragonflies resting their wings. It's like an international airport.
Did the relatively dry rainy season cause the temperature of the waterside to rise and encourage them to emerge? We don't know why so many dragonflies are here. That made us a little bit worried. Dragonflies eat other insects, especially the bad ones, which can be bad for people. But honestly, there are too many, so this is worrysome. However, the children enjoy catching them, they even land on their clothes, and don't need a net.
The "Eye" of the dragonfly
As you all may know, they have more than 10,000 "ommatidia" (Eyes). But they don't get the same projected image we do, thats because their "eyes" are different in how they look. The information each dragonfly sees is collected in the brain to form a single image. They have what is called a "compound eye," and their field of view is almost 360 degrees, and can see everything going on around them, and move quickly in response. They also have amazing skill in determining colour, that also helps them be excellent fliers, who can fly anywhere.
How do dragonflies see the world? I will pretend to be a dragonfly, a master of flight, let's have a look at it.

Looking at the contact books, it seems that there were some children who got sick during the holidays. The Yumenomori cart departed, but returned early too. Even if it's hot, it's a priority to stay healthy, we avoided swimming in the pool today. Be careful of to not put air conditioners too low. We found the kids rolling on the floor and laying around. After which, we had tea time, cause we needed to have some water.
It's time to get ready for lunch. Oh, their hands were waiting on their knees… wow wow! We prepared a comfortable sleeping environment according to each childs physical condition, and they fell asleep at their own pace. The start of a fun week after the consecutive holidays will be more polite and calmer.
Your sleeping faces are really cute ♡. When I see their cute faces, I feel recharged.
However, while eating school lunch, the other designers reflected and worked out some new strategies. "I wonder if I should have said something like this earlier…" "I want to make the environment over there a little better…?"
The representative flower of summer, "Sunflowers".
The spacious grounds behind the exchange facility will be a spectacular field of sunflowers in just a little more time!
How do the dragonflies see the children? Let's pretend to be dragonflies and look at it with "compound eyes"…
I wonder if they're tired after the holidays… The temperature is high, so let's have a relaxing time chatting while watching the situation.
I love making things! I want to try myself! Because she keeps track of the daily growth of sunflower seedlings. Let's try a crafting game! She felt joy being able to do something by herself. A challenging task!
Let's prepare some origami! And hope it appeals to her…
All right, she's interested!
In this way, sunflowers of various sizes, large, medium and small, bloomed in the nursery room.

Seeing and thinking about things from various standpoints… I want to have a "multiple perspectives" and "multiple thinking" like a dragonfly as a designer…
I felt like they were cheering for the Yumenomori school…
Thank you, dragonflies!
