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 for 10 years as a kindergarten teacher and for 7 years as an after-school childcare instructor, then took a post as a music teacher at an international school in Singapore. In addition to music education, I also engaged in activities that shared Japanese culture, traditional games, and recreational play, working with many children. Afterwards, through freelance writing, planning, and editing work at Shogakukan, I met many delightful adults and experienced the joy of communicating and conveying ideas. Leveraging the perspective cultivated in educational settings and my experience as an editor, I aim to deliver practical information—focusing on fields related to music and children—that values both input and output. Hobbies include instruments, singing, handcrafts, toys, drawing, traditional play, the outdoors, books, DIY, and crafts. Special skill: spinning-top tricks.

I’ve been playing the Electone since I was six, mainly performing Disney music, anime songs, and music from dramas and films. I post performance videos on YouTube and social media, and I also give concerts. Building on my Electone experience, I took up synthesizer and piano during my student years and performed at school-sponsored events. As a writer, I’ve covered not only music-related topics but a wide range of genres, so I hope to draw on my experience to deliver articles that make readers think, “I want to try that!” or “I want to listen to that!”

Merry Christmas! Your laughter is the best soundtrack of the year.

Christmas is an event that makes many people feel happy, and when laughter overlaps, that happiness grows even more.

This message uses laughter as a kind of background music to convey, in a bright tone, that Christmas is a happy time.

While offering straightforward words to celebrate Christmas, it also expresses that you yourself are an important element that brings color to the holiday.

It shares a happy feeling that events become more exciting precisely because there are people who enjoy them.

For this year’s gift, is friendship okay? (Priceless)

Christmas tends to make us think gifts have to be expensive, but friendship is truly priceless, isn’t it? This message makes you feel grateful as it reminds you of the wonderful truth that so many people are helping you.

And the slight cheekiness of writing “priceless” yourself is, in a way, kind of cute.

It’s nice to be thankful for a relationship where you can continue to cherish this friendship—sometimes even more precious than a romantic partner.

It’s cold, but my hype is higher than the snow!

Even though winter has Christmas as an event, it’s cold and the days are short, so our spirits tend to dip.

Wouldn’t you feel a little happier if a super high-energy message arrived at a time like that? It’s the kind of message that shifts snowy landscapes into a brighter image.

People who sense that lifting their own mood makes others feel brighter might actually be very considerate.

Please keep making both others and yourself happy.
