For two days during that period, wooden toys from Nishiokoppe Village I was allowed to put it in the Special venue on the first floor.

Held in castanet-making Workshop in one corner of the venue! It was a two-day event that was soothed by the voices of the children who came to play and the warm sound of wooden balls touching each other. Next to the Nishiokoppe Village booth is a croquette shop from Bifuka. The potato and pumpkin croquettes were both delicious! It was super crispy. And Setoushi-kun collaborates with Bifukun & Mifuka-chan! There were some children who were confused by the appearance of Yurukyara. It's always nice to have a child who is happy.
