Suikawari Game
Megumi children enjoyed "Suikawari Game".
Suikawari (lit. Watermelon Splitting) is a traditional Japanese game that involves splitting a watermelon with a stick while blindfolded. Played in the summertime, suikawari is most often seen at beaches, but also occurs at festivals, picnics, and other summer events.

Also, they had very sweet watermelon morning snack.

Megumi 19th Graduation Celebration

Megumi 19th Graduation Celebra...
Both Seattle and Bellevue Megumi celebrated a beautiful graduation on June 18th. Fourteen students from Seattle and thirty-four students from Bellevue, all glowing and well, graduated this year. Over the past five years, the children grew into marvelous preschool students and went through many experiences together. Excitement, happiness, forgiveness, patience and sharing, the children studied and learned many valuable life skills together through this time.
A great testimony came after the earth quake and tsunami hit Japan three months ago in March. The children all got together and became strong for those who were affected by the disaster. Although small in individual strength, by getting together as one, we can become something larger and stronger. We believe that the children were able to understand this message.
I am so grateful for each and one of the children for being born into this beautiful world. I am so glad I got to meet them at Megumi Preschool. To all of my graduates whom I love from the bottom of my heart, I wish to send you this message:
“Congratulations on your graduations!”
-Yoshimi Suzuki
