season word 0823 water gun


 
Water gun is MIZU-Deppou in Japanese.
MIZU means water, and Teppou(or Deppou) means gun.
This year I saw the label of "WOH-TAh- GAN" in Katakana instead of MIZU-Deppou at toy stores or do-it-yourself stores.
 
"I" also made MIZU-Deppou .
 
 
It was fun.
 
However, we used plastic straws.
Currently, plastic things are becoming a big problem as an environment issue.
Starbucks have  started to stop using plastic straws, A Japanese big food company Skylark also have started to stop using them.
On the other hand, plastic bottles and plastic straws are main material for kid's crafts.
Of course when I was a child there were not such materials.
Ever period, kids use the current materials for their craft.
What kind of materials will appear when AH-chan become an adult?
