speech example
Dr. Noriko Akaishi, Associate Professor, Tokyo Kasei University
The content of the "Children's Lifestyle Support" was developed by a group of experts in the fields of childcare, clothing, and food, based on questionnaires and literature to determine what the children themselves should know in order to regulate their lifestyle and daily rhythm, and the effectiveness of the program was verified through a demonstration test. Rather than simply conveying information, we included trivia and other information, and asked children to playfully ask questions such as "Do you know what '◯◯' is? We have also tried to motivate children by asking them playful questions such as, "Do you know what 'Fat' is? We hope that you and your child will enjoy listening to Emo-chan's voice and make use of it in your child-rearing.
