Nurturing five senses

Reveal one's curiosity and inquisitive mind at the facility for disabled children

This growing care facility was built for children who cannot attend general kindergarten and nursery school.

It aims to nurture social adaptation skills and five senses. Through experiencing various things in the facility, such as communication with others, consideration for others, and discover and think about what they are good at through various experiences, these can draw out curiosity and inquisitiveness allowing the opportunity for the children to grow.
