Bento workshop for kids
Today, Darling and I accompanied Ethan to his school’s educational trip – bento making. When Ethan initially brought home the permission slip, he told us that ONE adult must accompany him. I volunteered to go but Darling said it would be nice to make it a family outing as well so we paid for 2 adults and 1 kid :)
Ethan was given a bento set, a pair of gloves, a hair net and a goodie bag upon arrival.
We were given several minutes of Japanese language lessons by the Chef before we start on bento making.
Darling helping Ethan with the gloves during the Japanese language lesson.
The chef then demonstrated the steps to make those bentos and the kids followed suit.
One of the staffs assisted Ethan in the beginning but he insisted to make his own bento without help.
And so he did. Darling had to help when one of the eyes went missing -.-
The kids did 3 bento altogether.
Ethan arranging his completed bento for judging as the top 5 best looking bento set will win a mystery gift.
Ethan’s completed bento – The Sakae frog, a pink bunny and a car with Mr. Octopus as the driver!
The chef went around looking at the kids’ bento and declared Ethan’s as one of the top FIVE! Yeay!
The chef presented the mystery gift to the five kids.
 The prize – Coinbox. Ethan loves this cutey coinbox a lot!
Apart from his self-made bento set, Ethan was also given the above bento meal and Vitagen drink for lunch while we adults had the following:
Chawanmushi with sharkfin and ginkgo.
Bento rice with chicken
Japanese salad and miso soup
At the end of the day, the mascot made its appearance and the kids charged into it like torpedoes!
Ethan oh Ethan… tak dapat hug from in front, hug backside pun jadi-lah!
We had a great time today. Ethan said he had lots of fun. I don’t mind participating in more activities such as this. We all went home happy :)

I love bentos. Incidentally, I started doing a bento box this week (but more snacks though) for my little one’s snack time in her class. I have always liked the idea of a child + parent workshop. I shall ask Sakae here if they can run one too. LOL. Thanks for sharing, fun post!
