a company that imports, develops and sells educational toys and playground equipment and creates playgrounds, aims to contribute to children's healthy growth through "play. LIVE", a video content that offers tips for parents and children to play at home, will be available free of charge on the official Instagram (Insta Live) of Bonelands.
Free tips to enhance your playtime at home during Golden Week, when you'll be spending more time with your family.
As the effects of the new coronavirus continue, many families will refrain from traveling or returning home during this year's Golden Week holidays. Families with children say they want to give their children more opportunities to exercise and get out of the rut of playing at home.
In response to this situation, Boneldo will be holding a "3DAYS PLAYFUL LIVE" event to offer tips on how to make playing at home more fun during the holidays. This content will be available to anyone free of charge on the official Bonelands Instagram (Insta Live), and archived videos will be available on the official Bonelands YouTube channel at a later date.
The program consists of four categories: "Body Play," "Rhythm Play," "Crafts," and "Learning," and takes about 30 minutes to change the way children play with a little ingenuity. Play leaders, who are professionals in the field of play proposals and are active in the Company's playground facilities, will give lectures to children aged three to five on games that can be played at home to draw out various physical movements and sensitivity.
