在日本青森县鲹泽町,本年度即将关闭的一所保育园的孩子们举行了一次特别的巡游活动,这是他们最后一次参加当地的传统节日——“睡魔祭”。Minami保育园自成立以来,每年都与当地传统文艺保存会联合举办这项活动,孩子们和家长们都对此充满热情。然而,随着儿童人数的减少,保育园将不得不关闭,这次巡游因此成为了他们告别这一传统仪式的纪念。
巡游的睡魔灯笼高3米,宽2.1米,其正面描绘了著名的历史战役“川中岛之战”的激烈场景,武田信玄与上杉谦信的对决被刻画得气势磅礴。13名1岁到6岁的孩子们以及大约50名家长和工作人员参与了这次巡游。他们在气势雄壮的鼓声和笛声中,高喊着睡魔祭特有的口号,用了一个小时完成了1.5公里的巡游。
活动结束后,一名参加巡游的女孩表达了对这次活动的情感:“虽然这是最后一次睡魔巡游,我感到有些伤心,但我希望明年还能在其他地方参加睡魔祭活动。”虽然保育园即将关闭,但孩子们对传统文化的热爱和对睡魔祭的留恋,将会在他们的记忆中留下深刻的印记。这次巡游不仅是对传统节日的一次告别,也是对即将结束的保育园生活的美好回忆。

News Title: “Miyoshi Sleeping Kite Festival Concludes: A Rare Glimpse of Japanese Traditional Culture”
Keywords: Miyoshi Sleeping Kite, Nursery School, Procession
News Content: In Miyoshi, Aomori Prefecture, children from a nursery school that is set to close this year held a special procession event, marking their final participation in the local traditional festival known as the “Sleeping Kite Festival.” The Minami Nursery School has been organizing this event in collaboration with the local traditional arts preservation society every year since its establishment, and both the children and their parents have shown great enthusiasm for the festival. However, due to a decrease in the number of children, the nursery school will have to close, making this procession a commemoration of their farewell to this traditional ceremony.
The sleeping kite lanterns used in the procession were 3 meters tall and 2.1 meters wide, with the front side depicting a fierce scene from the famous historical battle of “The Battle of Kako,” where the dramatic confrontation between Takeda Shingen and Uesugi Kenshin was vividly portrayed. A total of 13 children aged 1 to 6, along with approximately 50 parents and staff, participated in the procession. Under the sound of imposing drums and flutes, they chanted the unique slogans of the Sleeping Kite Festival and completed a 1.5-kilometer procession in an hour.
After the event, a girl who participated in the procession expressed her feelings: “Although it is sad that this is the last Sleeping Kite Procession, I hope I can participate in the festival in other places next year.” Despite the nursery school’s impending closure, the children’s love for traditional culture and their nostalgia for the Sleeping Kite Festival will leave a profound mark on their memories. This procession was not only a farewell to the traditional festival but also a beautiful commemoration of the closing nursery school life.
