In this garden, many creatures come to visit — ants, dragonflies, pigeons, and probably frogs as well. But if you take a closer look at the “non‑moving things” such as stones or fallen leaves, you might just discover an entirely new life form! Find stones or leaves that look like a creature or remind you of something, then add colors, lines, or other decorations using pens or paper. Finally, give your newly discovered species a name!

All new species will be exhibited in the “Villa Kamogawa Museum.”
