How to: Letters to Santa
Every year around this time, parents and teachers are looking for ways to get their kids and students into the Christmas spirit. Making crafts and singing songs are fun and always a sure thing.

Strawberries! いちご!
先週、ジャズミン先生がいちご狩りに行きました。とってもおいしそうですね。場所は高松市にあるいちご屋スカイファームです。40分間食べ放題だそうです。なんと練乳までいただけるそうです。私が行ったら顔がいちごで真っ赤になりますね!料金は大人が1,600円、子供が1,000円、3歳未満は無料だそうです。 Last weekend Jasmine Sensei went strawberry picking and they look really delicious! She went to Ichigo Sky Farm in Ida-cho, Takamatsu. For 40 minutes you can pick and eat as many strawberries as you want. You can also request a bowl of condensed milk to dip your berries into while you pick. I think my face would be red afterwards
