I love playing with my 7 year old daughter! However, it is a sad Ikumen who has already been dismissed as "daddy annoyed".

" Activity Japan I would like to say my name, wonder. Around this time, the "women's tag team" of elementary school daughter & 9 wives threatens their position in the home. In order to carry out a wonderful plan that is said to be "Daddy, wonderful!" On a trip to Kyoto during spring break, I have to go online day and night for sightseeing in Kyoto.


A ceramic art experience that attracts children to Japanese craftsmanship and cultivates a "heart that values things"!

" Activity and say", but a bamboo basket tend to imagine the active experience of the sport system, in fact, "Japan" = the Sun book! There is a " Activity Japan" lineup that is full of experiences of traditional culture. Actually there are many traditional cultural Activity sightseeing spots such as the authorization of the image of "Washi" · Kyoto . Actually, I already booked the experience of "making sweets" and "kimono rental" on Kyoto trip with spring break. The more you examine it, the more you can tell that "a tight time and a dense experience" is possible, the world of Kyoto Activity . I want something more memorable than my family! As a result of continuing searching with the wish ... ... I found a really attractive course! Let me introduce you!

A classic course for dates and girls' trips, Ninen-zaka to Sannen-zaka ♪ Let's easily enjoy the pottery you wanted to try at a popular spot that everyone feels "Kyoto-like!"


A hands-on classroom that can be completed in just 20 minutes without overwhelming the tight travel schedule. The price is as easy as 1800 yen including tax, and you can freely choose the work you want to make. What's more, he produced works of Kyo-yaki (Kiyomizu-yaki), which is famous all over the country. Did you plan for this? ”I feel the gratitude of the over-self-consciousness class (laughs). However, of course, the planner's kiln, Kasho kiln, is not a pottery that pops out, but a famous kiln that lasts for four generations.

There are many Kyo ware kilns, and each kiln with various personalities, such as Zuikou kiln, which boasts a tradition of 240 years, and pottery, which is popular for its unique design, has set up hands-on classrooms, and each is popular. .. Among them, this Kasho kiln workshop is perfect for my family with children.


<Point 1 that makes you happy with your children> Although it is a famous kiln, young craftsmen with light footwork will guide you in the hands-on classroom.

Even though it is a masterpiece, a light-footed young craftsman will teach to the experience class.

A seven-year-old daughter (even a beginner) seems to be disgusted if it is a dignified one of "The Ceramic Artist" atmosphere. However, if you look at the information detail page of this course, the contents are very carefully guided. A gentle staff is comfortable feeling that they will reach out to the hand, "I will help the difficult place." Join the casually without hesitation OK! Thank you.


<Child-friendly point 2> Access is in the "middle" of the tourist spot, so children can drop in without getting tired.

This classroom is located in the convenient center, a 6-minute walk from Kiyomizu-dera Temple, and along the famous "Sannenizaka". It's in the middle of the place called "Sanneizaka outside the window", which is a place you can't miss for sightseeing in Kyoto. Sanneizaka is a steep slope with stairs. If you are traveling with children, a child who is tired of walking around tourist attractions will be full of premonitions that he will be disappointed at "Kiyomizu-dera ...", but if there is such a spot on the way to Kiyomizu-dera, the child I'm afraid that my mood will change and it will be a break.

In particular, my daughter loves crafts. If you can make your own work during sightseeing, you must be overjoyed. While checking the feel of the cool soil, the experience of turning the potter's wheel under the guidance of a professional, traditional Kyo ware, and finishing her own work is likely to be a highlight of her memories and excitement.

Kyoto Ceramics Experience Recommendation

In addition, my wife's worries may be resolved. Actually, my wife was a big porcelain lover, and she cherished the beautiful teacups, teacups, cups, etc. that she had collected when she was single, saying, "While my child is small ...". Recently, my daughter also became an elementary school student, so I said, "I want to use good things," and I try to mix some of those tableware with ordinary tableware, but the other party is still a child. Even if my wife explains that "because it's the tableware that mom cherishes" and "because the person who made it has a feeling for the" work "" , I often break it, so I'm sorry. If such a girl experiences "making tableware by herself" on this machine, I think she will have a certain amount of respect for how she views and handles tableware. As a parent, that is also interesting and hopeful.

While raising my expectations, I suddenly remembered the fact that my family had already booked a "kimono rental". Should I avoid booking on the same day as I can't get it dirty? I thought ... At this workshop, "Aprons are available for clothing customers, and Kappogi is available for kimono customers (free rental)." You can feel the delicate consideration that anticipates all the needs of tourists. It takes about two weeks to color the work molded in the hands-on classroom with the selected glaze → bake → arrive at home after completion. While looking at the works that arrived, let's talk about the memories of our trip to Kyoto again ... It's a plan that you can carry over the fun even after your trip.
