Festivals mean fun and games, too. It's time to play!

Explanation

  • A shooting gallery is a game at an amusement park, festival, or fair, where people try to win prizes by hitting targets with a toy gun.

    The ring toss is a game in which people try to win prizes by throwing rings over upright sticks, bottles, or similar objects - or over the prizes themselves.
  • shooting gallery  (射的)は、遊園地やお祭りなどで見かけるゲームのひとつです。おもちゃの銃で標的をねらい、命中すると賞品がもらえるゲームです。

    ring toss  (輪投げ)は、棒やビン、的になる小さな物などに向かって輪っかを投げ、うまく輪っかを引っ掛けることができると賞品がもらえるゲームです。

examples

  1. In shooting galleries at festivals in Japan, the guns usually shoot corks.
  2. My boyfriend gave me a big stuffed bear he won at the shooting gallery.

Good luck today, in whatever you do!
