food sample

[100-Yen Shop] Let’s make shaved ice that isn’t ice-cold! [ASMR] [DIY]

The food samples displayed at town diners and department store restaurants can be so well made that you might mistake them for the real thing.

On the other hand, the ones that look obviously fake are also endearing.

So why not try making a shaved ice food sample? You’ll need a shaved ice bowl, paper clay, red paint, white paint, and epoxy adhesive.

The epoxy adhesive will serve as the transparent “ice” portion.

The basic process is simple: shape a base with the paper clay, then layer on the epoxy adhesive to form the ice.

It could be fun to invite some friends and make them together.

There are plenty of tutorial videos on making food samples, so be sure to check them out for reference!

AED Map

Emergency training: Where is the AED? How to find an AED: It is placed inside a dedicated box marked with the AED symbol. There is also an AED smartphone app. Full text available. AED effectiveness. Chest compressions. AED.

An AED is a device that can save a person’s life by restoring the heartbeat.

Have you seen them at train stations, airports, or theaters? AEDs can save the lives of people whose heart and breathing have suddenly stopped.

How about choosing an “AED map” as a topic for your independent research? You might be surprised by how many AEDs you can find around town.

If your child enjoys investigating things, they can turn it into a game-like activity—walking around the city while working on their project! It’s important not only to mark the installation locations on the map, but also to make clear records by combining photos and other details.

This is a theme that will be educational not just for children, but for their parents as well.

Let’s try separating the colors of the ink!

[Simple Experiments & Independent Research] Break Down Ink Colors! Try Paper Chromatography

The ink in water-based pens is actually made by mixing various colors.

So let’s break down the color of each ink and find out which colors are mixed together! The method is simple: draw a line on a coffee filter with the water-based pen color you want to examine, then soak it in water for about five minutes.

As the filter absorbs the water, the ink color separates and forms a gradient.

This technique is called paper chromatography—think about why the colors can separate this way.

Also, because the separated ink creates a gradient, if you use a round piece of coffee filter, you can make a cute flower.

Let’s make Colorful Joy!

P&G × CAINZ: Let’s Create Colorful JOY!

Here’s a science project idea using dishwashing detergent that both kids and adults can enjoy! Let’s make “Colorful Joy” using the well-known dishwashing detergent Joy from the commercials.

The key to this project is combining the heavier “W Antibacterial” Joy with the lighter regular Joy.

Pour the heavier one into a glass or plastic bottle first, then carefully add the lighter one afterward to create beautiful layers! Try different color combinations, or add dried flowers beforehand for a herbarium-like look.

The best part is that you can use it as dish soap at home after you’re done—what a delightful science project!

Aluminum door plate

I tried making a door plate using items from the 100-yen shop! [100-yen DIY]

To put it simply, a door plate is a plaque with the room name written on it—like “Science Lab” or “Principal’s Office”—placed in front of a door or above it.

It’s practical to have at home, too, and since it’s made of aluminum, the glossy finish looks cool.

Why not try making a shiny, sleek aluminum door plate for your summer project? You’ll need an aluminum plate, double-sided tape or glue, and alphabet stickers.

The basic method is easy: just stick the lettering onto a rectangular aluminum plate—be careful to keep the letters straight.

Labeling the restroom as “TOILET” and the bathroom as “BATH ROOM” in English doubles the cool factor.

Once your project comes back from school, be sure to actually use it!
