Children in Wakakusa Kindergarten in Tokushima City soaked in shobu-yu. The leaves of the shobuyu smelled like peaches, one child said.
The children sang the song "Koinobori" while soaking in the bathtub. It was the first time in four years that the event was held in a public bathhouse. The festival of the end of the year was canceled due to the influence of the new corona, but this year it was held.
