100 Yen Shop

The road of sakuras on the riverback right by our place is in full bloom, so almost every day is a picnic lunch for Sota.

Sakura's really have a special power to make everyone happy!

Anyway, with the warm weather and longer days, we brought out the kite we got last year and to my surprise Sota was able to control it on his own.

And looking at all the stuff I was carrying, made me realize that Sota's ball, kite, jump rope, shovel/sand toys, our picnic sheet...all the outdoor toys were from a 100 Yen shop! So cheap but good quality...which will make any mommy happy!

There's a lot of 100 Yen shops but personally I would reccomend DAISO.
