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.

I am an active nursery school teacher with 9 years of experience. After graduating from university, I worked at a daycare center. The time I spent happily with children—playing piano, singing songs, and doing finger-play—are priceless memories to me. Currently, while raising three children of my own, I work at an after-school day service, engaging with children and providing individualized developmental support. Drawing on my diverse experiences as a childcare worker and as a mother, I hope to express and convey my thoughts through writing.

A braided-look hairstyle made using only hair ties and simple three-strand braids.

First, take a section of hair near the bangs and braid it.

Continue braiding toward the back of the neck.

Next, split the hair behind that section into two, and braid it together with the section you just braided.

Then, take the hair behind the ear and do the same—braiding it together with the lower section—repeating the process.

Do the same on the other side, and finally combine the two braids to finish.

It’s a cute sports day style that won’t get messy even with a hat on.

Easy hairstyle you can do with just a hair tie

Sports day hair anyone can do: a little twist at the ends 🤍 Works regardless of hair thickness or length!

Easy hairstyle you can do with just a hair tie

A cute hairstyle that even moms who aren’t good at braiding or plaiting can easily do.

First, split the hair in half at the back and clip one side out of the way.

From the other side, take a V-shaped section from the top and tie it with an elastic.

Then, a little diagonally below, take another V-shaped section the same way and tie it together with the section you just secured.

Repeat this, and finish by flipping the last tie-through (topsy tail).

Gently pull and loosen the tied sections to add airy texture as you like.

On busy days, gathering it into just one side still looks cute.

Since you don’t use pins, it’s easy to wear a hat and you don’t have to worry about it falling apart!

Poodle hair you can do even if you’re clumsy

https://www.tiktok.com/@maika_hair0128/video/7261576002185219330

Here’s a tutorial for a poodle-style hair arrangement.

First, take a small section of hair from the top left and right, and braid each side.

Once done, secure them with elastics and gently loosen the braids.

Gather them together with the remaining hair, and with the section above the elastic kept braided, remove the elastic from the lower braids and braid all the hair together into one braid.

When finished, tie the ends and roll them into a round shape.

Fold it inward and secure with a decorative hair tie.

Bigger accessories are cute and highly recommended! It’s also important to gently loosen the braid to make it look cute, so don’t forget to fluff it out.

Hairstyles you can do even with short hair

Super easy bun hairstyle for short hair! Stays put with just a hair tie and won’t fall apart!!

Hairstyles you can do even with short hair

Recommended for those with short hair or lots of hair! Here are some styles you can do even with shorter hair.

High buns and ponytails give a bright, energetic, and active impression, don’t they? Many people may struggle with “My hair is too short and not long enough” or “I have so much hair that it won’t stay together.” These are great ideas to try in those situations! Divide your hair into two sections, top and bottom, and tie them separately.

If you look slightly upward while gathering your hair, it’s easier to get it all together!

Side arrangement you can do in 5 minutes

[For Elementary School Kids] A Side Hair Arrangement You Can Do in 5 Minutes

Side arrangement you can do in 5 minutes

Here’s a side-hair arrangement you can do in 5 minutes.

Take the hair in front of your ears and divide it into a top and bottom section.

Pull the top section back at a 45-degree angle and braid it, then secure with an elastic.

Next, split the bottom section into two down the middle, drop the braid between the two sections, and tie the bottom hair together above the braid.

Create a topsy tail (flip the tied section through the gap), then tie again a little below the first elastic, and bring everything behind your ear to finish.

Do the same on both sides.

This style is great for keeping hair from falling forward while you work.
