Special Collaboration: Fumikiri (Japanese Railroad Crossing) Meets Fast Food!
We are excited to share a unique, fun-filled coloring page created in collaboration with the popular YouTube channel “Fumikiri-ri”! This page features a whimsical character with a Japanese railroad crossing (Fumikiri) for a head, working hard as a fast-food cashier.
Learn Japanese & Japanese Culture Through Coloring
This coloring sheet is not only a fun creative outlet but also a fantastic tool to Learn Japanese and explore daily life and terminology in Japan. Here are some cultural and language insights hidden in this drawing:
- Fumikiri (踏切): In Japan, train culture is a massive part of everyday life. The distinctive yellow and black railroad crossings, known as Fumikiri, are a familiar and beloved sight for children and train enthusiasts alike.
- What is “Norishiro” (のりしろ)? On the far left of the page, you will notice the Japanese text “のりしろ” (Norishiro). In Japanese, this word means “glue tab” or “margin for gluing.” It indicates the specific area where you can apply glue to attach this page to another sheet, combine pages into a custom booklet, or paste it securely into a scrapbook!
