10 years as a kindergarten teacher / elementary school teacher / junior and senior high school teacher / childminderkepiko
Graduated from Kunitachi College of Music, Faculty of Music (now: Department of Music Culture and Education, Early Childhood Music Education major). In elementary school, my homeroom teacher was Jun Kusaba, a game researcher. After graduating from university, I worked as a kindergarten teacher for 10 years and as an after-school childcare instructor for 7 years, then took a position as a music teacher at an international school in Singapore. In addition to music education, I engaged in activities that introduced Japanese culture, traditional games, and recreational activities, working with many children. Later, through freelance writing, planning, and editing at Shogakukan, I met many delightful adults and experienced the joy of communicating and sharing. Drawing on the perspective cultivated in the field of education and my experience as an editor, I provide practical information with an emphasis on both input and output, mainly in areas related to music and children. My hobbies include instruments, singing, handicrafts, toys, drawing, traditional games, the outdoors, and books. My special skill is spinning-top tricks.

Sixth graders grow rapidly and begin to develop their own opinions.

As they discover the joy of cooperating with friends, they also start to value their friendships even more.

Their interest in learning increases, making them eager to try many new things.

This is also a time when their creativity flourishes, so crafts are a great way to draw out those feelings.

Here, we’ve gathered unique projects that use a variety of materials and ideas.

We hope they’ll enjoy both the fun of making things and the fun of playing with friends using what they’ve made.

♬ So Cute – Kim Sung Hwan

A cute doll that conveys a sense of three-dimensionality and softness is assembled using chenille stems (pipe cleaners).

You’ll use thicker, fluffy pipe cleaners, twisting and combining them, then shaping them to achieve your ideal form.

How many pipe cleaners you use is an important point: proceed while considering a size that allows the whole figure to be sturdy and a quantity that gives it dimensionality.

Once the overall shape is set, attach parts like the face to finish it—your choice of parts here adds originality to the craft.
