Hello everyone.
It's been a few days since the new semester started. We recently went on a cherry blossom viewing tour at Yume no Mori. We all boarded a bus to see the cherry blossoms at Yonomori Sakura Tunnel in Tomioka Town and Sakashita Dam in Okuma Town, which are famous cherry blossom viewing spots near the school.

“Ah, there’s play equipment!!”
The cherry blossoms were in full bloom and were blooming beautifully. While the children were enjoying the cherry blossoms, saying, ``It looks like a tunnel! It's beautiful!'', what they were more excited about was playing! After all, it's more fun than flowers.

However, today's important item is 200 yen worth of sweets. The children carried the sweets they had brought with them carefully on the bus and happily ate them in the park.

The last stop is Sakashita Dam in Okuma.

Here are some photos that the Yumenomori children took with their tablets. What the children were interested in during their cherry blossom viewing walk was...

A caterpillar was walking on the road
Many children were moved by this and pointed their cameras at it..

And of course the cherry blossoms!

While strolling through the cherry blossom viewing, the children's eyes lit up as they discovered many new things, such as discovering the different colors of cherry blossoms and finding and observing insects. It was a time when I saw children with eyes that adults don't have and realized how amazing children are.
