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.

Ultraman Blade made from cardboard

A spinning Ultraman craft made from cardboard! It’s simple, but making it with your kids is lots of fun.

You’ll need a template for the craft, cardboard, wood glue, a tool to make holes, nuts, and black and white paint.

First, cut out the template and use it to cut the cardboard.

The cardboard will be the base, so adjust the thickness as needed.

Once the parts are ready, make holes, paint the pieces, then assemble them using nuts, washers, and wood glue.

When it’s about halfway dry, secure the handle and you’re done! Try making your own favorite Ultraman item.
