Kodomokai 2012

Nishi Ward Childcare Festival 2012



This year, Gideon, Aiko, Marie,Jonathan and Crystal attended. Marie and Jonathan were visiting from Dubai and are on their way to Pakistan. They only spent 4 days in Fukuoka and it was so much fun to work alongside them at the Childcare Festival.
The children would come in with their mom or dad and had to ask in English for a balloon. So first alittle communication in english, then a balloon as a reward.
