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 as a kindergarten teacher for 10 years and as an after-school childcare instructor for 7 years, then took a position as a music teacher at an international school in Singapore. In addition to music education, I engaged in activities that introduced Japanese culture, traditional games, and recreational activities, working with many children. Later, through freelance writing, planning, and editing at Shogakukan, I met many delightful adults and experienced the joy of communicating and sharing. Drawing on the perspective cultivated in the field of education and my experience as an editor, I provide practical information with an emphasis on both input and output, mainly in areas related to music and children. My hobbies include instruments, singing, handicrafts, toys, drawing, traditional games, the outdoors, and books. My special skill is spinning-top tricks.

After working for five years at an after-school childcare club and three years at a nursery school, I began working as a freelance writer. I’m a mother of two children. Inspired by playing the flute in the school wind ensemble in elementary school, I joined a jazz club at university. I’ve also incorporated ukulele and piano performance into childcare. Playing, laughing, feeling sad, feeling frustrated—through all kinds of experiences, I want children to grow.

Here are some handmade bag ideas perfect for starting nursery school.

Pick out your child’s favorite characters, animals, or colorful fabrics together and come up with an original design.

Double the excitement!

It’s best to make the handles sturdy.

Adding pockets makes it easier to carry lunch boxes and snacks, so try making one while getting inspiration from various ideas.

For safety, it’s also important to secure and finish off the ends of the threads properly.

Looking forward to the finished bag will surely make your child excited for their first day of nursery school!

[Drawstring type] diaper pouch

Here’s a cute diaper pouch idea where the diaper compartment is a drawstring bag.

To make it, sew two bags of different heights and stitch them together at the bottom so the larger bag sits on the inside.

The outer bag has a zippered pocket that can hold baby wipes, letting you use them directly from there.

You can also tuck a handkerchief or tissues in the space between the two bags, so it holds more than it looks.

Drawstrings can seem tricky to open and close, but this one uses a cord stopper to cinch it tight instead of tying, making it easy to use.

Large Pouch with Handle

How to make a diaper pouch with a handle (with lining, with outer pocket, large size) Diaper pouch

Large Pouch with Handle

Let me share an idea for a diaper pouch with handles that you can use like a bag.

This one has a large capacity that fits four big-size diapers and a pack of wipes.

If you add D-rings, you can also use it as a shoulder bag.

Since you want to keep both hands free when caring for a baby, being able to wear it on your shoulder is really helpful.

First, make two pieces by sewing handles onto the pocket fabric, then sew them onto both sides of the outer fabric folded in half.

Sew the zipper onto the outer fabric, place it right sides together with the lining, and sew.

Create gussets so it forms a bag shape.

Turn the fabric right side out, close the opening, and you’re done!

I managed to make an Anpanman drawstring pouch, even being super slapdash!

Carry your precious things with you! Here’s an idea for an Anpanman drawstring pouch.

You’ll need fabric, colored cord, a pencil, felt, a needle, and thread.

This project doesn’t require a pattern, so it’s great for beginners at handcrafts! It’s adorable to see kids happily filling the pouch their guardian made for them with one treasure after another.

It could be fun to adapt it to the faces of Anpanman’s friends, too! Give it a try.

Clutch-style diaper pouch

How to make a stylish diaper pouch: a clutch-style, large pouch with pockets

Clutch-style diaper pouch

This is a clutch-style diaper pouch that I highly recommend for anyone looking for stylish diaper pouch ideas.

It doesn’t have gussets, but it’s quite large, so it’s more than enough to hold diapers and wipes.

There’s also a large pocket inside, so you can separate the diapers and wipes if you like.

Sew the pocket onto the lining, then place it right sides together with the outer fabric, to which you’ve attached a zipper, and sew around.

Attach the handle and sew it into a bag shape, then turn it right side out through the opening.

Tuck the lining into the outer fabric, and you’re done! Try making it with your favorite fabric.

Backpack with zipper pocket

How to make a backpack with a zipper pocket

Backpack with zipper pocket

Backpacks can hold items of various shapes, making them perfect for outings and field trips.

So why not try making one by hand? This idea features an outer pocket, which is handy for storing things like handkerchiefs and tissues.

Start by making the pocket.

Once the pocket is finished, sew it onto the outer fabric, then sew on the side panels, bottom piece, and back panel to form the main body of the backpack.

Make the lining in the same shape, combine it with the main body, and you’re done.

If you can’t find a backpack in a pattern you love, use this as a reference and try making your own.

baby backpack

Introducing an adorable baby backpack that’s perfect for the first-birthday “issho mochi” celebration! You can get all the materials at a 100-yen shop.

For the outer fabric, we recommend using quilted fabric or adding fusible interfacing.

Since the belt portion is thick, hand-sewing works well.

For toddlers who are just starting to walk, having a backpack on their back can act as a cushion if they start to fall backward, giving you peace of mind.

Pop in their favorite toys or snacks and head out for a little stroll!
