A fun cooperative race using mats! We explained the basic rules, then practice time! Each team came up with their own chants and how to position the kids. Of course, the go-to chant ended up being “Ready, set—go!” haha! It’s fun to watch and fun to do! And it’s a race that gives you a good workout. Definitely give it a try!Matt#RaceMatt RacetranslationCooperationTeam BattleReady, set, go!#The cheer is cute#perfectly_in_syncKids Challenge ClubFun exercisePhysical play (exercise)#Sawara Ward, Fukuoka City

Team competition! Here’s an idea for a cooperative mat race.

Start by deciding who will pull the mat and who will ride on it.

On the cue “Ready, set, go!”, the pullers drag the mat while the children on the mat jump.

By synchronizing their timing, they’ll inch closer to the goal! Once everyone gets used to the game, try competing in teams.

The time spent discussing strategies is a valuable opportunity for the children.

It’s a playful idea that deepens learning through play!

♪ Original Song – Kotoba no Kyōshitsu Sora Mame Kids – Teacher Sora Mame

It’s simple but tricky—that’s what makes it fun! Here’s an idea for a game where what you say and what you do are opposites.

A teacher or guardian plays the role of the caller, giving directions like forward, backward, left, and right.

The children imitate what the caller says, but perform the opposite movement.

It’s a unique game! At first, it’s best to go slowly and carefully.

Once everyone gets used to it, try speeding up the tempo or adapting it into a three-person team match to make it more exciting.

Bomb game

[Indoor Play] A Game Enjoyable Across Ages [Bomb Game]

The excitement just won’t stop! Here’s a fun idea for a bomb game.

It’s a great way to build concentration and decision-making skills while playing.

All you need is a device that can play music and a ball or balloon.

Have the participants stand in a circle facing each other.

While the music is playing, pass the ball to the person next to you.

When the music stops, whoever is holding the ball loses—simple as that.

It’s sure to be a hit with preschool classes!

What comes out of the egg…? Here’s a fun egg quiz that gets kids thinking! Make eggs out of construction paper or nonwoven fabric, and have the children imagine what kind of baby will hatch from inside.

Plain white shells can be hard to guess, so try expressing the baby’s characteristics on the shell itself.

For example, if it’s a baby zebra, give the shell stripes; if it’s a ladybug, make it red with black polka dots—hide clues on the shell.

Once everyone gets the hang of it, let the kids come up with ideas too, and you’ll end up with lots of clever egg shells to match each baby!

Hiragana Collection Challenge

Here’s a hiragana-collecting challenge that’s exciting whether you play alone or with friends.

Spread cards with single hiragana characters on the floor.

Give a prompt, then gather the matching cards to form words.

Use a stopwatch to time how long it takes to complete each word.

Start with a prompt that makes just one word, then gradually increase the number of words—it can be more fun that way.

This game is great for building concentration and thinking skills, so give it a try!
