TOYS DANCE THE CHA CHA CHA 02: WOOF WOOF CASTANET

This is the one of the cutest animal castanets I've ever seen. I wish I had bought two of them, because my daughter loves flamenco dance recently. Hmmm... A dog and flamenco might not be a good combination...

TOYS DANCE THE CHA CHA CHA 01

When I was tidying up my daughter's room this morning, I found her Japanese vehicles in her toy box. She used to be obsessed with cars, trains and Bob the builder, but not any more... She loves Star Wars and Princess Belle instead.

Anyway I though that they are amazing. I love the detail and cuteness.

This is a Ramen Truck (Ramen no Yatai in Japanese) where you can have a nice hot Ramen, Gyoza and so on... Japanese businessmen tend to go there to have a snack after a drink.

I used to see this sort of mobile grocery shop when I was in Japan, but I am not sure that they still exist. I must find out when I go back this summer.

CHUN CHUN BIRD FROM 1999

I found the original artwork of a Chun Chun bird from 1999. Sadly my drawing skills have not improved much since then...

OOPS! I FORGOT TO PUT THESE UP


The Chun Chun bird was nesting in a bubble at Kids Modern Show.

We were told that we could have a space at Kids Modern Show four days before the show so we did not have enough time to prepare the display... but hey, we had brilliant staff to make it work.

B Mirai and Aki were fantastic. Hoa and Domo were also helping us too. Minasan arigato!


B Mirai and Florence became good friends during the show and they were playing with Noodolle's toy. Thanks, Yiying for taking such a good picture of them!
