Research Abstract |
Japanese children now are eating and using things without knowing the process of being made. To know the process of making things means that children can understand their relation with those things. So we go ahead with this execution to precede the inner hearts of children. On the other hand, old age people who know the process of making things are losing the meaning of their necessity nowadays. Play is the center for children and they enjoy making tools for life as play. So we have been trying to exploit the old age people to show the model of hand-made life tools and to teach children how to make them. In the process of our efforts above, both children and old age people can get the main challenge for their development by supporting of middle age people. They need one another and can get their feeling of entity. Moreover, we could know the two-way learning tendency in both children and old age people. Children enjoy the process of making life tools just for fun and then move to make better tools. Old age people aimed to make good tools for life and moved to enjoy the process of making them by watching the children's style. We have known that children and old age people learn together, teach together, not one-way flow from old age people to children. We also have known that our cultures of human-beings are relayed spirally to the younger generation. This relation will be expanded to their living area and make it cross relation region.
