Background
Our company was selected out of more than 100 companies that applied to participate in the "Kobogakkan Accelerator," a business co-sponsorship program jointly organized by Kobogakkan and Kobogakkan-Shueisha Productions. The Kobo-Gakkan Accelerator is a business creation program with the keyword "innovation to seed the children's future". Starting with the refinement of the concept of "Gokan Gosai," which is to nurture the five senses by the age of five through dietary education and contribute to the healthy upbringing of both parents and children, we worked with Kobogakkan-Shueisha Productions for a year to update "Gokan Gosai" in a variety of ways. This project was realized as an extension of those efforts.

Overview of the "Gokan Plus," a childcare booklet for parents produced by Kobukagakkan-Shueisha Productions.
We have been dealing with "education" for 50 years since our establishment, and have further utilized our experience in the "childcare" business.
In the area of childcare in particular, we have developed the generic name "Raku-shu Hoiku ®️", which emphasizes fun experiences and experiences that lead to "learning" in "play" and "living".
Based on the know-how gained from the "Raku-aku Daycare ®️", we have reflected the opinions of nursery school staff onsite to help solve the problems that parents face depending on the age of their children. In addition, the contents of the magazine include many opportunities for children to learn and enjoy themselves. The planning and production was done in cooperation with Kodomo Ribingu, which publishes Japan's most popular child-rearing magazines*, "Anfan" and "Gyutte". In addition to the perspectives of experts in the field of education, advice from the company's members who are senior parents, and carefully selected child-rearing information that new mothers "want to know now" under the supervision of the editorial department, this is a unique series of child-rearing publications.

Outline of the picture books for babies produced by White Izumi.
We have been publishing the picture book magazine "MOE" (MOE for 44 years) and the childcare information magazine "kodomoe" (kodomoe for 9 years). As a "connoisseur of the picture book world," we have been introducing quality new and old titles through these two magazines, and have published many best-selling picture books. This time, we took advantage of this wealth of expertise to produce a picture book for babies. The keyword that is common to all seven books is "parental communication", with red eyes, colors, sounds, food, animals, and other subjects that are very close to red eyes. We aimed to create picture books that are both entertaining and relaxing, so that the children and their parents can turn the pages together and enjoy the "whole time" of the storytelling experience.
Outline of renewal products [Date of launch] September 1, 2022 (Thursday)
The booklet of this program will be included in the "Gokan Gosai" that will be delivered to your home in late September.

Message from Shinkeiro Tsuzuki, President and Representative Director of Kobagakkan-Shueisha Productions Co.
While SHUEISHA has developed a wide range of businesses, all of them share the same philosophy of "edutainment". By combining the two contradictory concepts of "education" and "entertainment," we have created many new businesses. The underlying idea is that people can learn while having fun. Based on the essence we have cultivated through our experience in the education and childcare fields, we are proud that we have created a "fun and educational" book for parents. We hope that through this project, we can support FUNFAM's concept of "nurturing the five senses through food".
Message from Hirofumi Sugawara, President and Representative Director of White Paper Co.
Although White Izensha was founded 50 years ago with a focus on comics by small families, as the company's range of publications has expanded, it has lost its age and gender boundaries, and is now enjoyed by many different people.
In the field of picture books, MOE and kodomoe have been producing works that are both for preschoolers and adults, and we were thinking of publishing a first book that would expand the senses of Red Red Red as part of our 50th anniversary project. This was the perfect opportunity for us when we were approached by FUNFAM Co.
We hope that picture books, together with food, will help to nourish the children and help them to grow up healthy and happy.
Message from Yasuyo Fujioka, Representative Director, FUNFAM Co.
We will continue to provide emotional education through meals called "Gokan Gosai®". The five senses - taste (eyes), sight (eyes), hearing (ears), touch (hands) and smell (eyes) - are all nurtured through meals by the age of 5, the peak of the human brain's development. In terms of healthy life expectancy, dietary intake in childhood forms the basis of the rest of one's life and has the greatest influence on the nutritional balance. Full-bodied. Although the term "whole foods education" has become obsolete, we hope to redefine it with this product.
