Childrenfs Day this year was blessed with a good bright May day.
gKidfs Festh, an event well familiar to the community, was held
in KBC again this year.
Since the weather was good, an open cafeL was set up outdoors.
|
The fun time began with songs and games
for infants and elementary age children.
|
 |
|
In the back of the
cafeL, fathers and mothers watch their children while enjoying their
coffee. |
 |
At last, the Samson
Troupe begins their play, gThe Worldfs Greatest Treasureh.
|
 |
Whatfs a treasure thatfs important
to you? |
 |
Collecting balloons becomes popular
in a village of dwarves!
If they have a special balloon, they can become popular.
|
 |
So they try to sell all their possessions
in order to get the best
balloon! |
 |
However, the popularity of collecting
special balloons soon fades,
and now the friends are gone toocc. |
 |
The children watch the play intently.
|
  |
The old man who actually created the dwarves starts telling the children
about the true treasure.
gYou are the best piece that I created. You donft have to compete
with anyone. There is no one like you in the world. You are the only
one masterpiece. So, you, yourself, are the treasure.h
In Japan, people are not taught that they were created by God, and
almost everyone believes that evolution is true. In the competitive
society of Japan, based on such a concept, people increasingly have
a low self-esteem from childhood, and devalue their lives, as well
as those of others. Wefd like to speak to the hearts of children that
each one of them is an important and valuable treasure . . . that
is the idea behind Kidsf Fest.
|
After the event, many families enjoyed
their lunch and the shop was as lively as an amusement park! Did they
have fond memories of the day?
Get ready to have fun again at Christmas Kidsf Fest. |
