On a bright sunny day in early December our class headed out to the Seaside Mikan Farm in Yokohama.
Last year the Montessori classes also took part in this excursion, so the children who had been on the excursion the year before knew how much it was, so they were excited to pick some mikan’s once again.
Armed with our plastic bags we were invited to pick and eat as we walked along searching for our week mikan’s.
Playing amongst the trees was also encouraged!
We noticed that some mikans had seeds which we were told was due to cross growing a mikan with an orange. The result was a sweet taking treat!
We loved having our three parent chaperone’s (Jennifer’s mum, Alejandro’s mum & Margaux’s mum) to guide us along and enjoy the day with us.
