Learning effects: It is very important for children to directly view real paintings drawn by artists at a sensitive age in order to develop their aesthetic sense. This will lead to further expansion of the knowledge and skills acquired in daily classes.
Message to teachers: I believe that the experience of appreciating beautiful works of art is a good opportunity to develop a familiarity with museums and an interest in paintings. We are giving a commemorative gift of Beniko Fukasawa’s flowers to all the students who come to visit.
