Kobe store blog ❁ ~Picture book time on a rainy day~

こども本の森神戸でてるてる坊主を見つけた子ども

Hello(^^)/
It's the rainy season, and I'm wondering where to take my kids on my days off.


The other day, I took my two-year-old child to "Kobe Children's Book Forest" in Sannomiya, Kobe.
It was an exciting place for both children and adults (^^♪
The store is packed with picture books from top to bottom as far as the eye can see!!
Moreover, the cover of the picture book is visible,
Children are also very interested!!

As for my children...
When she finds a book in the house, she happily brings it to me.
I brought along picture books about animals such as pandas and bears.
Parents and children enjoyed picture book time in a wonderful space surrounded by picture books.

There were some really big picture books too, which was interesting.
I wonder if it would be used for reading to children at daycare centers or libraries?

By the way, the stools at Children's Book Forest and the signs with book themes written on them are made from wood from Hyogo Prefecture, such as Mount Rokko.

The chairs in the lounge, decorated with cute Totoro and Teru Teru Bouzu ornaments, are church chairs and have a place to put a Bible in the back ☆

I can't help but be fascinated by trees and chairs... It's an occupational hazard (^^) lol

I want children to love books, and to become interested in and learn about many different things.
When I think about it, it's really nice to have a picture book stand where you can display the covers and store lots of seasonal picture books and illustrated guides (*^-^*)
