Will it be a savior for families troubled by nursery school and kindergarten closures? "Online Kindergarten.

The actual content outline looks like this

In the morning, after the "morning greeting", there will be a "song, dance and exercise corner" to stimulate the children's senses and relieve their lack of exercise.

[Noon] Before "Ohiru no Jikan", we introduce "How to wash hands properly" to prevent infection. The children are encouraged to wash their hands in time with the song. In addition, to avoid encouraging children to eat while eating, we play only static images and music during "Ohiru no Jikan" so that children can concentrate on eating.

In the afternoon, after "Oohiru no Jikan", we set up a "Hagaki" corner, where we play a song repeatedly to teach children how to brush their teeth, so that they can actually brush their teeth along with the song.


The "Brushing Teeth" section is designed so that children can brush their teeth together.

 

We want to provide an environment in which children can thrive, even under the conditions of the "new Corona.

In response to the situation where children are spending more time at home due to measures against the new coronavirus infection, Benesse Holdings, Inc. launched a new special website on March 6, 2020, "Shimajiro to Issho! webcharenjien" was newly launched. After that, the company's customer service desk received many concerns from parents, such as "I have nothing to do and I'm bored," and "I don't know how to be involved as a parent just by looking at the text," which led to the launch of "Online Kindergarten" on March 18.

In fact, a survey conducted by Benesse Institute for Educational Research on children between the ages of 3 and elementary school revealed that "the power to do one's best" can be nurtured in early childhood if parents respect their children's motivation and create a learning environment. In other words, now that we spend more time at home, it is important to create an environment where children can learn well at home and respect their motivation, which is why the "Online Kindergarten" was opened.


The "Online Kindergarten" will also feature storytelling.
