Warmoria Celebrates Milestone Milestones with Exciting STEAM Event

Warmoria, based in Nagareyama, Chiba, commemorates a significant achievement as its STEAM education program, zunŌw, celebrates its 5th anniversary. With over 7,000 participating children since its inception in July 2021, the company aims to engage families through hands-on STEAM experiences. To mark this occasion, Warmoria will host an exciting event titled "zunŌw 5th Anniversary: 7,000 Curiosities, and Beyond!" on September 22, 2026, at the zunŌw Nagareyama Otakanomori campus.

This celebration will not only honor past participants but will also showcase a variety of activities designed to stimulate curiosity in children. Highlights include special guest performances by local comedian Takeru from Interesting Take, providing entertainment and laughter throughout the day.

zunŌw aims to introduce children aged preschool to elementary school to the wonders of STEAM education, which covers Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Mathematics. Focusing on hands-on experiments and creative projects, the program has been fostering a love for learning by encouraging children to ask questions, experiment, and discover answers independently. In doing so, it creates an environment where the process of creation and learning is valued more than merely arriving at a correct answer.

A Look Back on zūnŌw's Journey

Since the launch of zunŌw, Warmoria has offered workshops in various settings like schools, daycare centers, and community facilities. By providing flexible and engaging experiences wherever children gather, Warmoria has effectively reached out to a wider audience, furthering the mission of delivering education where it's needed most. Their commitment extends beyond classroom walls to include community and partnership engagements.

The upcoming anniversary event represents a heartfelt “thank you” to all who have supported the program along the way. With an emphasis on exploration and inquiry, participants can look forward to activities that promote critical thinking and creativity.

The anniversary celebrations will feature an array of exciting programs:
1. Mini STEAM Experiments: Young attendees will engage in hands-on experiments using everyday materials to explore scientific principles.
2. 3D Pen Activities: In partnership with ToyMe, kids will create original artwork using 3D Pens under expert supervision.

Looking Ahead

As zūnŌw prepares to expand its outreach programs in 2026, the increase in participation confirms the effectiveness of their method in extending educational opportunities.
The company's growth strategy includes enhancing their instructor network and resource materials to ensure that every child has access to quality learning experiences.

"Our goal is to provide children not just with the skills but also the passion for exploration and learning," says Tomofumi Hirano, CEO of Warmoria. As they continue their commitment to meet children where they are, ZunŌw aims to create pathways for lifelong curiosity and discovery.
