Morikami Fieldtrip

Homeschoolers + Morikami Musuem = great education in Japanese culture

This tree is 400 years old! Amazing!

These Bonsai trees are traditionally passed down from generation to generation in the same family. That is such a beautiful thing! Imagine caring for a tree that was cared for by your Great-great-great-grandmother.

"Well, let’s look at the metaphor of the Greenhouse—or the hothouse, as some have called it. You don’t transfer plants right from the greenhouse into the field. Before that transfer, plants go through an intermediate process called a “cold frame.” A cold frame differs from a greenhouse in that it doesn’t have as much temperature control. There’s much more fluctuation of temperature than in the greenhouse. There, the plants get used to changing temperatures so they don’t go into shock out in the field. That’s where the plants are “hardened.”

Similarly, there are transitional involvements and activities that allow our children—once they’re well-rooted morally, doctrinally, and spiritually and have a strong sense of what they believe and who they are in Christ—to progressively be exposed to different points of view."
