Hi, I’m Maiko.
I live in Okayama.
I have 2 kids.
This site introduces my favorite playgrounds in Okayama that you can go with your kids.
Yasutomi farm in Ashimori Delicious gelato & farm animals
Yasutomi farm (安富牧場 Yasutomi bokujyo)
I often go to this farm with my kids.
We love this farm.
The gelato here is very delicious.
Smooth, not too sweet and just right.
It is made from freshly squeezed milk.

Introducing a nearby playground (No admission fee)
Matsugahana family park is also fun!
There is a large park called Matsugahana Family Park near Yasutomi Farm.

There is a skateboard field.
You can ride on a skatebord ,unicycle, kickboard.
Sunagawa Park in Soja
It is a park where you can play in the water using a natural river.
You can also camp here.
If you don’t use a paid tent site, there is no place to change your clothes.
So, we always change our clothes in my car.
You can use the water in the campsite.
There is a toilet but it is only Japanese style…
Kinojyo (The castle of devils)
This is an old battlefield.
It is one of the famous historic sites of Soja City.
You can reach by climbing the mountain.
But I always go by car.
The view from the walking course is the best.

Nichiouji Sports Park is very close to Okayama airport.
Children can practice biking and skateboarding.
You can see the departure and arrival of airplanes up close.
I will write the English version of the article I was writing in Japanese.
This is the first one.
I will write other articles from now, so please look forward to it.
I hope it will be useful for the child-rearing generation living in Okayama.
