I visited Saijo Shibetsu store! Saijo Shibetsu store is holding a birthday festival to celebrate its 28th anniversary! For two days during the festival, wooden toys from Nishiokoppe Village were placed in a special area on the first floor. From the Komu Museum of Art we brought a wooden sandbox filled with hundreds of wooden balls, wooden puzzles, toy cars, and a Miracle Korokoro Tower where marbles roll for fun. A castanet-making workshop was also held in one corner of the venue! We spent two soothing days listening to the happy voices of visiting children and the warm sounds of the wooden balls. Next to the Nishiokoppe Village booth was a croquette vendor from Bifuka. Both the potato and pumpkin croquettes were delicious! They were wonderfully crispy. And Setoushi-kun collaborated with Bifuka-kun and Bifuka-chan! Some children looked puzzled when the mascots appeared, but it was heartening to see those who were delighted. Thank you to everyone who stopped by! Once again, congratulations to Saijo Shibetsu store on its 28th anniversary!! #Nishiokoppe Village #Hokkaido #Saijo Shibetsu store #Birthday festival #Congratulations #Komu Museum of Art #Leather craft #Local specialty sales #Setoushi-kun #Bifuka-kun #Bifuka-chan

Introducing Yamato City's event character, Yamato-n. Yamato-n is a boy leaf spirit from the forest, about three to four years old in forest age. He usually lives at Izumi no Mori in Yamato City, but when there’s an event in town the festival-loving Yamato-n might just pop by to play. He is gentle and a little shy, yet often enjoys interacting with children and friends from other towns. Sometimes he holds the city flower, the Japanese aster, and sometimes he does not. He is very cute.
