A mother and some kids were playing at a super ball scooping stall
Kakurin-ji Temple stands where Sakurada-dori and Meguro-dori branch off in Shirokanedai. In its narrow precincts, many food stalls were lined up today. Today is a fair day. The normally quiet precincts of the temple are crowded with worshippers on this day. Some stalls were selling food, others were selling games. In the photo is one of these stalls, a super ball scooping stall. Colorful super balls are floating in a water tank.
While I was looking at them, a mother came by with her young child. She squats down and teaches her child how to play. Beside the child listening to the mother's explanation, there was a girl staring at the floating super balls.
The equipment for super ball scooping is almost the same as for goldfish scooping, but the preparation and maintenance costs are lower. Despite the low cost, the colorful super balls floating on the water create the fun atmosphere of a fair. Perhaps this is why you see them so often at fairs these days.
