Recently, Itsuko-san from “ジンギスカン屋 桜こまち” and Misato-san from “やすらぎ山下整体療院” visited our shop. They had a great time playing with an English family and enjoyed various activities, including kendama painting and making kaleidoscopes. I also had a wonderful time spending those enjoyable moments with them.
Traditional Japanese games, which are becoming less common even among Japanese people, are incredibly deep and interesting—even adults can have so much fun with them.
The other day, we had a family from the UK visiting us. The little boy was very energetic and good at playing with building blocks. His favorite game was ‘Daruma-Otoshi,’ and he laughed heartily when playing with the owner. His mother enjoyed playing with origami and kendama, and she was also skilled at juggling. Thank you so much for visiting AriHana Kyoto.

Today, a family from Amherst, USA, came to visit. Their 4-year-old daughter was absolutely captivated by the Japanese toys, playing with them one after another. She even tried origami, enthusiastically learning from her parents. She also said, ‘I love kimonos!’ and chose a pink one to wear, showing off her adorable smile. While the little girl played, both her father and mother got deeply involved in traditional Japanese games. They enjoyed activities like origami, kendama , daruma-drop, and picture books, spending a fulfilling time themselves. At the end, they also made fans. The little girl said, ‘I want to keep playing here!’ and her mother thanked us, saying, ‘In Kyoto, it’s mostly temple sightseeing, and children often get bored. Thank you for opening such a wonderful place!’ They were all so happy, and it made me feel truly grateful. I opened AriHana Kyoto as a space for children to play and for people of all ages to enjoy together.
