You don't feel any "learning" factor. But you will learn. The enthusiasm for learning becomes the power to live.
The goal of "Friends of the Sea" is not to "make you learn," but rather to give you an experience in which you can acquire skills while you are absorbed in playing with it.
Playing cards, typing, listening to a talk at a talk event.
All of these are spontaneous learning opportunities that start with a child's "love of learning. Watch over them as they slowly release their own power as they grow into adulthood.
This summer, we hope that "Fun! will lead to children's future.
