Gakken Study et to Host 'Summer 2026 Kids Adventure: Ice Candy Road' Event

Background

During summer vacation, children often lose their regular study routines due to the absence of school classes, creating challenges for families. Additionally, tasks such as book report writing are difficult for parents to guide at home, often increasing their burden.

To address these issues, we have designed a learning event incorporating the world of role-playing games (RPGs) to provide an environment where children can continue learning spontaneously and enjoyably. By combining the sense of achievement from completing tasks toward a goal with hands-on experiential learning, we aim to foster children’s intellectual curiosity and sustained motivation to learn.

Event Features

Through an RPG-style learning program, the event will feature three special activities:

・Book Report Writing Workshop

Targeted at students from grades 4 to 6, this workshop will provide detailed guidance on structuring essays and expressing personal reflections, supporting children in completing book reports that are often difficult to finish independently.

・Let’s Make Ice Candy!

Open to students from grades 1 to 6, this hands-on activity allows children to make ice candy using everyday ingredients, introducing them to the wonders of science and the joy of creation in a fun way. Participation is unlocked by completing learning tasks and collecting in-game items.

・Puzzle Tournament

Designed for students in grades 4 to 6, this tournament will enhance logical thinking and concentration through engaging puzzle challenges.

※Each activity has limited capacity. Interested participants are encouraged to register early.
