Nursery!!

This week at the nursery i taught the children head, shoulders, knees and toes in English! Although the younger ones couldn't quite get the hang of it the older ones were doing okay and everyone, including the teachers, were up singing and doing the actions. It was a lot of fun. The kids at the nursery just seem to get cuter everytime i go! They are forever climbing all over me, once one kid is sitting on my knees the rest have to be sitting there too and it normally ends up in a fight and someone crying, not cool. The teachers were doing a class photo this week which was a disaster. All the kids were all lined up sat on their chairs, the teachers lined up behind them as one of the teachers set the timer on her camera. As she would run to join everyone the kids would all turn around to see what she was doing so the pictures weren't turning out too great as they weren't facing the camera! Eventually one came up with the idea of throwing one of their teddy's infront of the camera to make them all look, it worked... kind of!

After being served two cups of green tea everytime we go to the nursery i think i am finally getting used to it after three months. I still do not enjoy drinking it but it no longer makes me feel sick,result. When lunchtime comes around the kids eat everything on their plates, they are definately much better eaters than myself! Even the babies who we feed eat everything, fish, vegetables, miso soup, rice they are so good! The Japanese are just so healthy and it is good that the kids are given healthy food from such a young age, unfortunately it is too late for me to change.. i love junk food way to much!! 

This month we were also given the great news that on July 21st we are heading to Hokkaido- the most southern island of Japan to volunteer at a kids summer camp with the red cross. I am super excited, i am not quite sure what it will entail yet but when i do i shall write an update! yay.
