What's inside the box?

It’s a game where you put various items in a box and guess what’s inside.

If you’re a mischievous adult, you might be tempted to include things that hurt or feel gross, but let’s choose items that both adults and children can enjoy.

Something like a sea cucumber should be fine.

You can also try using live creatures, depending on how things go.

Minion danceNEW!

The Minions are popular characters from the Despicable Me film series distributed by Universal Studios! This is an upbeat dance song featuring the Minions dancing.

The choreography is simple enough for children, so why not all become Minions and dance together? With a yellow T-shirt and overalls, you can instantly transform into a Minion! Wear matching outfits with everyone, dance, and create wonderful memories.

Gorilla Game

[Class Activity] Guaranteed to Succeed, Laugh-Out-Loud! Gorilla Game
Gorilla Game

Guaranteed to have everyone in stitches! Let me introduce the “Gorilla Game,” which can turn any little pocket of free time into a burst of fun.

First, choose one child to be the helper.

It’s even more exciting if you pick a really energetic kid.

Next, explain the rule to the chosen child: “No matter what anyone asks you, answer ‘gorilla.’” After that, the other kids simply take turns asking questions! Whatever they ask, the answer comes back as “gorilla,” and the kids erupt in laughter.

You don’t have to stick to ‘gorilla’—it could be any funny word and still be a blast.

Give it a try!

fashion showNEW!

Elementary school kids usually wear clothes that are easy to move in, right? Even if there are stylish outfits you want to wear, sometimes they’re not suitable for school.

There are probably kids who want to go all-out with fashion at school, too! That’s why we recommend a fashion show! Put on outfits you can’t usually wear and walk the runway.

First, decide on a theme, then use the clothes everyone brings to create your own unique coordination.

Including makeup, pay attention to every detail and express your individuality.

The largest painting in the worldNEW!

“Exhibited at the Osaka-Kansai Expo! Positive children who created the world’s largest painting.” What is Positive Behavioral Support being implemented at an elementary school in Tabuse, Yamaguchi Prefecture? A must-see not only for education but also for adults struggling with worries!

If you’re thinking about creating something together, how about drawing a large picture? You can all work on a single design collaboratively, or decide on a theme, come up with several designs, split up the work, and connect them at the end to finish as one piece.

It may be a time-consuming idea, but the time spent making it will likely become a one-of-a-kind memory.

We also recommend gathering around the finished artwork to take a group photo.

Give it a try if you’d like!

Journey to the WestNEW!

From the stage production “Journey to the West,” Ainosuke Kataoka, Teppei Koike, and Ken Matsudaira deliver powerful performances! Stage ‘Journey to the West’ press call
Journey to the WestNEW!

This work is based on a Chinese novel and features distinctive characters such as Sun Wukong, Zhu Bajie, Sha Wujing, and the monk Tripitaka.

In Japan, it has been adapted into films, TV dramas, and stage productions, and is loved by people of all ages.

Because each character’s personality is so clear, it should be easy to perform in a school festival play.

By preparing makeup and costumes that match each character, you can recreate the story realistically.

Decide which scenes to portray on stage while referring to past productions and other resources.

Projection mapping is an art technique that projects images onto walls and other surfaces using a projector.

How about pushing that idea further and turning it into a stage performance? Move blocks and props in sync with the visuals to create a world that feels almost magical.

Above all, it’s great when it’s visually fun, right? Practicing to match the footage can be tough, but the audience will be all the more excited for it! There are plenty of helpful videos online, so definitely look them up.
