[Chuo-ku to enjoy with children] #12: Nurturing Festival CHUO 2016 (Harumi Triton Square)

[Dye] October 31, 2016 14:00

It's getting chilly day by day.
There are many days for going out, and I feel like going to play somewhere with Chibi ^^

   
By the way, I feel that Chuo-ku is a city that is easy to raise children and is friendly to children every day.
An attractive event will be held at Harumi Triton Square on November 3rd (Thursday / holiday)!

     

“Ikusai Fes CHUO 2016”
 http://ikufes-chuo.com/
(Details → http://ikufes-chuo.com/2016/10/148)

    

Clearing storage course, food education course, recreational talk session, couple's house share workshop...
And the disaster prevention experience is the theme of this time.

    

It seems that you can also make disaster prevention lights made with only water, sample disaster prevention food, and experience lifesaving training.
Previously, I had a lifesaving course at a fire department, but I don't have the opportunity to learn about specializing in children, so I would like to go there.

    
[Overview]
  Date and time: November 3, 2016 (Thursday/holiday) 10:00-16:00
  Venue: Harumi Triton Square 2F Grand Lobby
  Participation fee: Free (Souvenir bags are distributed to those who have achieved stamp rally)
  Participation: Those who are raising children, those who are raising children in the future, those who want to support child care in Chuo-ku

     
As expected, Chuo-ku! I can rely on it. You can feel safe. Thank you very much!
If you are in the middle of raising children, those in the future, why not visit by all means? ^^

How to measure distance     How to measure distance

[HK] October 14, 2016 16:00

The other day, I saw a foreign customer who was lost near Kachidokibashi Bridge and near Tsukiji, so I spoke.

Both of them were trying to walk to Odaiba.  As expected, I recommended the use of trains and buses because I thought it was far away, and wrote it on paper to guide me, but young couples wanted to walk to a place where I could walk, so I just crossed Kachidokibashi and proceeded straight.

Both groups were kind and polite and thanked, but I was surprised that the way of measuring the distance from them was too different.   

Of course, it will vary from country to country, and there will be individual differences, but from now on, I decided to guide you in consideration of the other person's appearance and atmosphere. 

 

 

As I was walking near Kachidoki bride and Tsukiji area, two groups of foreign guests were having trouble finding their way so I volunteered to help.

Surprisingly, both groups were trying to visit Odaiba by walking.    Since it is a long distance to Odaiba, I have recommended them to use subways and buses and wrote down the information for guidance but a young couple wanted to walk until they feel tired and give up so they crossed the bridge and proceeded.    Both groups were polite and appreciated very much but I was amazed to find out that the distance sense of foreign guests does not equal with us Japanese.  

Perhaps the way people feel differs between countries and individuals, but I kept in my mind that considering guests' outfits and moods is necessary for proper guidance.

 

 

 

Mizutanibashi Park-Towards the Problem of Waiting Children

[Mido] 18:00 on October 7, 2016

It is necessary to increase the number of nursery schools in order to solve the problem of waiting children, but it is difficult to secure new nursery school sites, so the "park three-dimensional plan" is progressing. . It is said that a white feather was set up in the plan to build a nursery school at Mizutanibashi Park in Chuo Ward, Ginza, and make the rooftop a park. It is said that this is the first time in Japan. Mizutani Bridge Park is a 760-square-meter park in the office area and has no noticeable playground equipment, but we often see office workers taking a break on benches surrounded by trees and OLs spreading lunch boxes.

 

According to the plan, there are about 80 nursery schools, and it seems that there will be a temporary custody for shoppers gathering from outside the city on weekends. Construction will start in 2017 and aim to open it in April 2019.

 

By the way, the number of waiting children in Chuo-ku was 263, an increase of 144 compared to last year's 119. More than half of the approximately 1,700 households in the ward with one-year-old children want to enter a nursery school, mainly in tower apartments on the Gulf, have increased the number of dual-income households in their 30s and 40s, mainly in the bay area. It would be nice if Mizutani Bridge Park's three-dimensional construction (opening a nursery school) solves the problem of waiting children even a little, and it would be a successful case.

Walking around the town, encountering Edo Japanese sweets (Chuo-dori)

[Dharma] 14:00 on October 6, 2016

The Rio Olympics-Para Joint Triumphal Parade will be held on October 7 at about 2.5 km from Ginza 8-chome intersection to Nihonbashi Muromachi. Once again the enthusiastic crowd was along the road. A few days ago, when the autumn rain continued, I walked on the quiet Ginza street. Near the starting point of Chuo-dori, at the middle and end points, there is a long-established Japanese confectionery shop where you can taste the skills of craftsmen with a coffee room.

 

Ginza 6-chome "Ginza Fugetsudo" It is a long-established Japanese and Western confectionery store that has a different system from Fugetsudo in Ueno and Tokyo for more than 130 years. Located on the corner of Miyuki Street and Namiki-dori St. (Soraya in front of you), the coffee room attached to it is a spot after waiting and silver bra. You can enjoy seasonal Japanese sweets set while looking at Miyuki Street. This is the season for Japanese sweets sold by the store! "Kurimushiyokan", which has a large chestnut, has a modest sweetness, and has a good taste, is an advanced hospitality item.

Take Hanatsubaki-dori toward Tsukiji, cross Chuo-dori and Showa-dori, and turn left on Kobikicho-dori to find Seigetsu Domoto. Founded in 1907 (1907) in the current Ginza 7-chome (formerly Kyobashi Kiboricho). The first generation sold "Miyokan and Kuzuzakura" and became a great reputation. With the knowledge of "enjoying seasonal Japanese sweets" from generation to generation, the founder left the word "Ichiyo Ichika", and the third generation creative Kimishigure "Otoshibun" is a popular signboard product ....HP) Mizuyokan and Kuzuzakura were also received, but the popular "Mame Daifuku" has the best balance of beans, rice cakes, and moderate sweetness! It's the three families of Bean Daifuku. There is a tea room.

The history of "Tokyo Fugetsudo" in Ginza 2-chome, Chuo-dori is the Japanese shop curtain division of Fugetsudo, and Yonezu Fugetsudo opened in Wakamatsucho, Ryogoku in 1872. Tokyo Fugetsudo opened on Ginza Street in 1983. In the tea room on the second floor, you can enjoy sweets and snacks while watching the cityscape of Ginza. <No photo>

 

Crossing Kyobashi and crossing Nihonbashi, you will find Tsuruya Yoshinobu Muromachi store on the first floor of "COREDO Muromachi 3" where "Kiya" used to be. Founded in 1803 (1803) and entered Tokyo in 1960. The representative famous confectionery is lined with beautiful sweets such as "Yuzumochi" and "Kyokanze" that Tessai Tomioka loved, and you can enjoy matcha and seasonal fresh sweets at the popular sweet shop. <No photo>

 

From September 28th to October 9th, the traditional culture festival "Nihonbashi Kidai Festival" will be held around Choredo Muromachi / Fukutoku no Mori.

 

Nihonbashi Muromachi 1-chome "Bikudo Nihonbashi Main Store" (Bikudo Tokyo HD) Bunmeido was founded in Nagasaki in 1900 (1900). The Shinjuku store was established in 1933, and in 1935, he published a big advertisement in the telephone directory, "Castella is the best, telephone number two." Established Nihonbashi Main Store in 1951. The showcase of the shop that opened the Linear is lined up with the classic masterpieces "Castella", "Miyama. Kasa-yama", "Castella Maki", and "Seasonal Japanese and Western Confectionery". You can enjoy the reputation of freshly baked Mikasa pancakes at the attached E "BUNMEIDO CAFE"....HP)
