Fun places in the city

Hina found minerals at a car parking in the city.

She was happy to find them and keep them as her collection.

When she is just walking in a city, she sometimes says she is bored. But recently she has been interested in coming to places with me even if it’s just a walking distance. It’s nothing special but she meets new people and talk to them.

She seems fine to talk to new people. She is so friendly. If the person is also friendly to her, she can make friends with them.

We are happy that people in Cambodia are friendly to children. They know how to talk with children as if they were old friends.

Having a new family member

We got a new family member! The others day, we welcomed a university student to be a temporary member of our family. It’s similar to being a host family but we focus more on being a family for a while.

Hina was excited to have a new member home. When the guest arrived, Hina became a bit nervous but she introduced her pets to the guest. We went to a mall together.

Hina loved talking and sharing her thoughts and interests with him.

When we had dinner at the mall, staff thought that we were a real family.

Unschooling can be better we could invite people to come to our house since Hina can be exposed to new culture.

We would like to have more guests from now on. It’s also good for guests who are thinking about whether they should have a family. They can observe how a family is like in reality.

48 Colorful Brush-type Pens

Hina got 48 color pens.

What we like about the pens is that their brush texture. It’s easy to express different thickness.

Usually we buy 12 colors or less for coloring since we can make colors by mixing other colors. But it’s hard to do so with pens. We also found that Hina uses many colors to express in details!

Colors come out nicely.

I’m excited to see artwork of Hina with more colors.

Too Early for Halloween?

Hina is so excited about Halloween. She thought Halloween was in September.

She came to me with this make up, saying “Happy Halloween.”

She painted her face with watercolor.

It looks quite scary.

We will start to decorate our house for Halloween soon. We can make pumpkin dishes too.

It would be nice if we could invite children to a Halloween party.

Taking care of earthworms

Hina has started to raise earthworms that are good for our plants. She keeps them as pets.

When I was taking care of our plants, Hina and I found a small earthworm. Hina was very interested and she said she would like to have earthworms.

My friend, who is an agricultural vermicompost producer shared her earthworms with Hina. Hina is very happy with earthworms.

It’s important to know about how earthworms work for our nature. We can appreciate eating natural vegetables and fruits more.

We hope to see cocoons of earthworms soon. They can live for 8 years!
