Discovering the meanings of Hanami 花見

Discovering the meanings of Hanami 花見

At our April Kanji Club group, we celebrated Spring with Hanami 花見, the Japanese custom of enjoying the beauty of flowers, often cherry blossoms. 

We explored the visual meanings of the two kanji and sounds, as well as some other kanji characters and their radical parts, and we practiced related vocabulary. Also we enjoyed our lighthearted kanji quiz which helped bring sounds, connections and meanings to each of the kanji parts and so make more sense when brought together as various kanji.

Also we read some kanji, katakana and hiragana in sweets packaging Blair had collected – the cute and sugary Koala’s March!
