A Vocaloid producer who is also a music writerAraki Jakkan
I’ve worked in a variety of roles—regardless of pro or amateur settings—including live event PA, cameraman for video and photography, restaurant staff, and logistics center staff. I now spend my days as a part-time writer. I’ve contributed to music and manga websites with feature/review articles, and wrote the liner notes included as a bonus for 1st PLACE Inc.’s “IA SUPER BEST.” As for my music background, I started playing guitar in junior high and focused on band activities during my school years. For over 15 years since then, up to the present, I’ve continued releasing original tracks as a Vocaloid producer. My areas of expertise are Japanese rock, Vocaloid, and manga.

Eurhythmics with Water Play

[Summer Eurhythmics: Water Play de Eurhythmics] Scarf play, hoop play, pretend play—let’s enjoy classic summer water play with the children! ✨ Parent–child eurhythmics, rhythm play

Eurhythmics with Water Play

Let’s have fun with expressions that feel like playing with water using props! Here are some ideas for “Rhythmic Water Play.” Eurythmics is a music education method that develops expressive skills by moving the body to music.

The charm isn’t just in moving to the music—it’s also in using items to express yourself.

This time, let’s try creating the feeling of water play indoors by using things like hula hoops and organza.

Through pretend play, children might notice subtle nuances within everyday movements.

Bubble play

"Bubble Play" [2-Year-Olds] | Torikai Higashi Yuuiku-en [Nursery/Kindergarten Event]

Bubble play

Foam play is perfect for a July event.

Prepare a pool or a large basin so the children can have a blast.

Once you make the foam, use a whisk or a stick with rounded ends to mix it.

The mixing process is so fun that both adults and children will be totally absorbed! It’s also recommended to add color to the foam to make “juice,” pour it into plastic bottles, and turn it into a pretend juice shop.

Please be careful to prevent accidental ingestion, such as putting foam in the mouth, and enjoy playing safely!

Ring toss with a swim ring

Ring Toss Showdown Game!!

Ring toss with a swim ring

A classic item for a day at the beach is the swim ring.

How about using it to play a game of ring toss? For example, one person can raise both hands to act as the pole, and others can throw the swim ring onto them.

The nice thing is that you can start right away without preparing anything special.

The “pole” and the thrower can also work together—like moving their hands to make it easier for the ring to go on.

There are also ring toss sets available for purchase, so you can get one and enjoy a more serious game.
