"Kamishibai Project"
"Usagi oishi kano yama, kobuna tsurisi kano kawa". This phrase is a part of the nursary rhyme called "Kokyo" (meaning "Hometown" in Japanese.).
In the old days, when, naturally,the television did no even exist, Kamishibai or Picture Drama Show was one of the few entertainments for children.
Tick-tock, tick-tock, tick-tock
At the sound of claves, children from all over came running to see Kamishibai,eargerly watched and listened to the Picture Drama Show with mouth full of candy hannded out by the story teller.

"Who and I?"
At first sight, you may be surprised that the Yatsu-higata is part of the sea.
But this muddy stretch of salty odor
is undoubtedly a part of the sea.
Why? Because the two warterways, Yatsu River and Takase River connects Yatsu-higata with the Tokyo Bay.
The Picture Drama Show, starts with the phrase "the tide is ebbing away", highlights well known fish and birds
as well as very small crabs and shells,
mud worms and clams living in the sand
opening the show with the phrase "who am I?"
Although one cannot step into the Yatsu-higata to take these living things in hand,
we hope our Drama Show helps
to understand the ecological value including the filtering role that these creatures play.
(This is a Picture Drama Show for infants)
"Hello, a pair of eyes peeking around, who is this?
"I'm Yamato-osa Crab"
(showing the folding eyes)
We await your visit to the Observation Center.
