Clothespin play

Why not make a DIY clothespin activity? Playing with clothespins not only exercises little fingers, but also nurtures imagination when children use them in pretend play.

First, prepare a thin, flat piece of cardboard.

Cut it into the shape of the motif you want to make, then cover it with construction paper or origami paper.

Choose familiar motifs for children, such as vegetables or animals.

After attaching the facial features, reinforce the piece with book tape or cellophane tape.

Then just clip the clothespins onto the motif and play! Encourage children to use their creativity—turn the clothespins into a fish’s tail fin, a rabbit’s ears, and more.

Epicenter Game100rank/position

Epicenter Game

This is a classic, popular game called the Epicenter Game.

It isn’t uniquely Japanese just because Japan is an earthquake-prone country, but it’s a fun game.

Please give it a try.

How to play: First choose an “oni” (the guesser).

While the oni isn’t looking, choose one child to be the epicenter.

The epicenter child and the other children form a circle, and the oni stands inside it.

The epicenter starts performing some kind of movement, and the other children imitate the epicenter’s movement.

Whenever the epicenter changes the movement, the others follow and change as well.

The oni watches and tries to guess who the epicenter is.
