Japanese way of living

This afternoon, NHK WORLD JAPAN TV telecast two shows that were very interesting. The first was about elderly Japanese who help each other irrespective of their physical ailments and socio-economic status. The other was about a museum that housed model displays showing day to day living Japanese for the past 37,000 years; the museum is nearly 6 km long and needs a few days to cover all exhibits. I tried to provide a link to the two shows, but in vain. I'll try to get it done as early as I can.

However I could acssess an interesting Utube video on a day in a Japanese elementary school. Let me share it here.
