A dark room where various plants are illuminated by the light.
Even though it was their usual room, the children were fascinated by the completely different atmosphere.
Dried plants are used for bottle lights.
First, go out into the garden and observe the healthy plants.
I saw the fruits of the balloon vine and even came across a scarab beetle.
When I got back to my room, I made a bottle lantern.
We'll add plants while experimenting with how light and shadow appear.
Which plant do you think is the nicest? Would it look good with some stickers on it?
We'll end with a group recital!
One by one, they shine their bottle lights on the screen in front of them.
Let's all find the cool and wonderful parts and give them a round of applause
It turned out to be a really exciting recital.
Since you can enjoy the bottle light for a while just by changing the batteries,
Have fun turning the lights on and off at home, too.
The next GREENWORKSHOP will be held on Saturday, September 26.
"Let's Learn About Traditional Japanese Festivals"
"Let's look for the Seven Autumn Herbs in Ark's garden and create a guidebook to them." Stay tuned!
