Deputy Editor of RAG MUSIC. JFC-certified fact-checker. I’m Sasashina, a mom currently raising an elementary schooler and a preschooler. During my student years at Kyoto College of Science and Technology, I studied a wide range of fields including sound, lighting, and video technology, building a foundation in comprehensive stage production and creative expression. After graduation, I joined a music production company, where I still work, consistently building experience in production and engaging in a variety of music-centered tasks. Currently, I mainly handle articles for children, drawing on what I’ve learned about parenting and what I feel and discover through daily interactions with my kids. I hope my work can be of help to you, even in a small way!

I’ve been playing the Electone since I was six, mainly performing Disney music, anime songs, and music from dramas and films. I post performance videos on YouTube and social media, and I also give concerts. Building on my Electone experience, I took up synthesizer and piano during my student years and performed at school-sponsored events. As a writer, I’ve covered not only music-related topics but a wide range of genres, so I hope to draw on my experience to deliver articles that make readers think, “I want to try that!” or “I want to listen to that!”

Story-style puzzle solving

Challenge your wits! 13 puzzle-solving questions

Story-style puzzle solving

This is a 13-question riddle quiz that challenges your IQ.

You’ll encounter problems one after another that feel like they could appear in mysteries, escape games, dramas, or novels.

For example, there’s a car crash inside a tunnel.

The suspect says, “It was raining so hard I couldn’t see anything, so it’s not my fault,” but the police arrest him saying, “Don’t lie.” Why? Because the crash happened inside a tunnel, so the rain isn’t relevant.

Many questions can be solved by carefully observing the screen, so everyone should be able to focus and give it their best.

Let’s think about this calmly.

[Riddle Quiz] Use the clues to guess what’s inside each one! Perfect for passing the time over the New Year holiday!

Let's think about this calmly.

I get the feeling that today’s trendy escape-room puzzles and the aptitude tests used in job entry exams can be traced back to good old brainteasers and logic quizzes.

I’ve even heard that problems testing logical thinking are now sometimes used in elementary school math classes.

On days when you can’t play outside, it might be fun for everyone to enjoy a “let’s think calmly” game together.

It could also be nice to make original questions for each other.

Maybe it’d be a good idea to propose it as an event for a school recreation class, too?

Puzzle solving in Minecraft

[Minecraft] What happened when adults tried a puzzle map made for elementary school kids... lol

Puzzle solving in Minecraft

Minecraft is a globally popular game.

It’s an open-world game where you’re free to do anything—explaining it in full would take forever, so I’ll skip the details—but really, you can do just about anything.

Among the many creations out there are puzzle-solving maps made by dedicated Minecraft fans.

Think of them like a Minecraft version of real-life escape games.

If you have the setup to play, definitely give them a try! And if you’re familiar with mods and such, it could be fun to create your own puzzle mechanics, too.

Fill-in-the-blank questions

What letter goes in the “?” spot? Try this fill-in-the-blank puzzle! [Tiger’s No-Nonsense Ranking Test: Puzzle Edition]

Fill-in-the-blank questions

Fill-in-the-blank puzzles that require you to guess the missing words captivate everyone from kids to adults, don’t they? For example, the first question is about a map of Japan.

It simply uses the initials of the locations on the map, so it’s perfect for grades that are learning the prefectures in social studies.

The second question is an alphabet-based puzzle: “B and O → band, S or A → ?”.

The answer becomes a word when you convert “to” (と) to “AND” and “ka” (か) to “OR.” Loosen up your thinking and give it a try in the grade where you’ve learned the alphabet.

An unexpected quiz

[Don’t Be Fooled] 4 Unexpected, Trick-Question Quizzes [Puzzle Solving]

An unexpected quiz

You’ll be given four unexpected, thought-provoking quiz questions.

For example: “You have a 5-liter and a 3-liter container.

How can you measure exactly 4 liters?” You’re not allowed to use any other containers.

The solution is: pour water from the 5-liter container into the 3-liter container, leaving 2 liters in the 5-liter one.

Empty the 3-liter container, then pour the remaining 2 liters into it.

Fill the 5-liter container again, and transfer just 1 liter into the 3-liter container, which already contains 2 liters—now 4 liters remain in the 5-liter container.

All the problems give you that satisfying ‘Oh, I get it!’ moment, making them a lot of fun.
