In preparation for Tanabata, the Kinder class created Orihime and Hikoboshi decorations, as well as Tanzaku (wish strips)
For the Tanzaku, all classes tried their hand at “nijimi-e” (bleeding ink art)!
As the colors blended and spread across the paper, they created unexpected and beautiful patterns.
The children observed the flow and mixing of the paint with fascination, joyfully saying things like,
“Wow, it’s so pretty!” and “It looks like a rainbow!”
Kinderクラスでは、七夕に向けて「織姫と彦星」、そして「短冊」の製作を行いました
まず短冊づくりでは、全クラスで「にじみ絵」に挑戦！
色がにじんで混ざり合い、思いがけない美しい模様が広がります。子どもたちは、絵の具の流れや変化を観察しながら、「わあ！きれい！」と目を輝かせて取り組んでいました
The K2 and K3 classes also challenged themselves with the spattering technique!
By dipping toothbrushes in paint and flicking them with their fingers, the children created soft, speckled patterns that spread across the paper―just like a starry night sky.
They were completely engaged in the activity, enjoying the unique and unexpected patterns that appeared
K2・K3クラスでは「スパッタリング技法」にもチャレンジ！
歯ブラシに絵の具をつけて指ではじくと、細かなしぶき模様がふわっと紙の上に広がり、まるで星空のような仕上がりに。偶然できる模様を楽しみながら、みんな夢中になって作業していました
For the Orihime and Hikoboshi outfits, the children used tissue paper and origami to create their own unique designs.
Each pair of Orihime and Hikoboshi was truly one of a kind! The children also drew the faces themselves, resulting in a display full of personality and charm .
織姫と彦星の衣装づくりでは、お花紙や折り紙をつかって制作しました。
世界にひとつだけの織姫・彦星が完成。顔も子どもたち自身が描いており、個性あふれる表情が並びました。
To finish, they wrote their wishes on Tanzaku strips and decorated the bamboo branches with their completed crafts.
We hope all of their heartfelt wishes reach the stars…
最後に、願いごとを短冊に書いて、完成した作品を笹に飾りつけ
みんなの願いごとが、お星さまに届きますように…
