Perfect for Christmas! A roundup of surprise ideas

Since discovering music during my school days, I’ve mainly listened to Japanese and Korean pop. I have experience writing articles for sites like Utaten. 2000s J-pop and 2010s K-pop were especially the soundtrack of my youth. With the mindset that “good is good,” I enjoy music across genres. Thanks to past work environments and their influence, I was exposed to lots of classic rock and kayōkyoku (Japanese popular songs), which may have broadened the scope of what I love. At RAG MUSIC, I currently focus on K-pop and J-pop. I strive to edit with a feel for the scene and an eye for hit potential.

When it comes to Christmas, nothing beats waking up to presents.

Add a surprise twist with a Surprise Egg! It’s simple: just put the gift inside a large, egg-shaped wrapping.

When it’s time to open it, have the kids rip that egg-shaped wrapping to shreds.

Inside are lots of the toys they’ve been looking forward to! It’s a simple idea that just incorporates “ripping the wrapping paper,” but it’s a huge hit—especially with preschool and kindergarten-aged children!

Santa is here!

On Christmas morning, finding presents by your pillow is such a delight.

Even adults get excited thinking that Santa brought Christmas gifts in the middle of the night.

And if children could actually meet the Santa who gives them presents, they would surely be astonished.

How about such a surprising gift? Santa appears from a big box! It will become a lifelong memory for the kids.

All you need is a simple setup: prepare a large box in a room filled with Christmas decorations, and have a real Santa pop out from inside.

Be sure to give it a try.
