[Report] After-School Creative Project

From a CANVAS Facebook post

*******************************************

[
After-School Creative Project] Today, we held a “Color Party” at the Mitaka City No. 4 After-School Care Center!
The children experimented and played with all the colors they see every day, and they even made some quirky glasses that can break light into its component colors.The children made many discoveries about how
colors appear.

When they heard about their friends’ discoveries, they were able to share in the excitement, exclaiming, “That’s true!” We hope that by observing different kinds of light, they’ll continue to make new discoveries even after the workshop is over.
