I’ve been working as a certified care worker for 17 years. I’m Nanaka, a caregiving web writer. I decided to pursue this profession because I wanted a job that would help people. Having worked in day care for many years, I’ve experienced a wide variety of recreational activities. Exercise set to music, in particular, always created a cheerful atmosphere and was very well received. I’d be delighted to continue delivering writing that resonates with readers through caregiving-related articles. Thank you for your support.

Oni made with paper cups

Oni have long had a scary image, but oni with teary eyes or endearing expressions are charming too! A paper cup transforms into an oni—this is a three-dimensional wall decoration with expressive faces.

It’s a fun craft where an ordinary paper cup keeps changing, so it’s great for day-service recreation as well.

Open up a paper cup to make the oni’s face, leaving the horn and ear sections uncut.

Then attach the eyes, nose, and hair to finish.

If you decorate with beans and a wooden measuring cup (masu), it really enhances the Setsubun atmosphere!
