Sticker making

Puni-puni handmade stickers #playAtHome #handmadeCrafts

We’ll show you how to make original stickers with a soft, squishy feel.

Prepare a clear file folder, a felt-tip pen, water-based color pens, the design illustration you want to use, and glue.

Place the design illustration under the clear file and color it in with the water-based pens.

Then drizzle glue over the top to trace the design and let it harden for a day.

Once it’s hardened, draw the outline with a felt-tip pen—and you’re done! This sticker-making activity is super popular with kids, so give it a try together.

Adventure – YOASOBI

Fluffy and springy! Here are some ideas for using Angel Clay.

Angel Clay is a type of lightweight clay known for its soft, fluffy feel and delightfully springy texture.

In recent years, it’s become easy to pick up at 100-yen shops, which is a nice bonus.

These ideas are perfect for kids who’ve grown tired of regular clay or for when you want to incorporate tactile play at home.

Of course, you can play with it using just your hands, but it’s also great to repurpose materials like plastic cups and straws.

Give it a try!

Building a secret base

Perfect for indoor play!

A play idea that will get kids’ hearts racing with excitement! Here are some ideas for building a secret hideout.

Just hearing the words “secret base” makes both kids and adults excited, doesn’t it? This time, let’s make one using plastic bags and newspapers.

Use clear tape to attach large plastic bags and newspapers together to build your base.

If you blow air in through the entrance with a fan or blower, the base will gently inflate and feel nice and spacious! Napping inside or playing with balloons sounds fun, too.

It’s a unique idea that’s perfect for summer!

Storm Storm Big Storm Game

[Indoor Play] Even MatsuJun was shocked?! Indoor play!!

Let’s play using our heads and bodies! Here’s an idea for the Big Storm Game.

Depending on the age group, it’s helpful to prepare visual aids like sample diagrams or origami markers.

Assign one child as the squirrel and two children as the trees.

At the teacher’s cue, “A wolf is coming!” the squirrel moves to a different tree.

At the cue, “A lumberjack is coming!” the trees move to a different squirrel.

At the cue, “A big storm is coming!” everyone moves and pairs up with different friends.

To start, try playing while using the sample diagram or markers as guides!

At-home games you can play with a towel

[At-home Play: Physical Activities] Easy towel-based games you can do at home! Get through the summer with indoor play for kids. Introduced by a nursery school principal and a childcare worker.

Let’s play with everyday materials! Here are some at-home play ideas using towels.

Towels are familiar items for both adults and children in daily life.

This time, let’s try playing with towels you have at your preschool or at home.

If you put a bag inside an open towel and roll it up tightly, it transforms into a ball that makes a crinkly sound.

If you tie the ends of a bath towel, it turns into a sled for dolls.

It’s fun how the shapes change, isn’t it? It’s a wonderful idea that lets children use their creativity while they play.

Handmade toy made from masking tape (yojo tape)

[At-home play] A handmade toy you can make in 10 seconds! A toy made only with masking tape has revolutionized the daycare. Introduced by a director and a daycare-teacher mom.

What can we make? Here are some ideas for DIY toys using masking tape.

Masking tape is probably something you have on hand both at preschool and at home.

Let’s try making toys with it.

You could even set a time limit and improvise—how exciting! What would you make? What kinds of ideas would children come up with? Just thinking about it is exciting, isn’t it? In the video, it’s used like tunnels and pockets.

Give it a try and incorporate it into your playtime.

Play expands with your ideas! Let me share some fun ways to play with tissue paper flowers.

All you need to prepare is tissue paper in your favorite colors.

Tissue paper is light, soft, and comes in attractive, vibrant colors.

Some preschools and families may use it for crafts, but this time let’s try using it for activities.

You can throw it, tear it, crumple it, and play dynamically, or put it in a container, add water, and make a sensory bottle for a calm, soothing time.

It could also be fun to decide on the activities together with the children.
