Experience Teddy Bear Making at Plus One Education School for Kids

Embrace Creativity with Teddy Bear Making Workshop

On November 9, 2025, Plus One Education, a subsidiary of Riso Group, will host a special Teddy Bear Making Experience in Tokyo. This event promises to be a delightful adventure for children in grades 1 through 9, offering them the chance to craft their very own teddy bear or horse plush toy under the expert guidance of seasoned instructors from Primerra Co., Ltd.

Why Choose the Teddy Bear Making Experience?

This workshop is backed by Primerra, known for its high-quality mohair fabrics sourced from international markets. These materials have been beloved among teddy bear enthusiasts for over a century. Whether your child is a beginner or has some sewing experience, this event promises to be a supportive environment where creativity flourishes.

Choose Your Favorite Plush Toy

Participants can select from three plush toy options. They can create a classic bear in either a charming white or a soft pink shade, or they may opt for the newly introduced horse design, inspired by the upcoming 2026 year of the horse. Allowing children to choose helps cultivate excitement and personal connection to their creations.

Comprehensive Support for First-Timers

Each instructor is dedicated to guiding a small group of three children, ensuring that every participant receives ample attention and help. From teaching the basics of sewing to providing step-by-step assistance in assembling their plush toys, this program is designed to empower children even if it’s their first time sewing.

Learn through Making!

Crafting a unique plush toy nurtures a sense of accomplishment and fosters creativity. Sewing also promotes the development of fine motor skills and concentration, essential for a child’s growth. Moreover, participants will learn about the history of teddy bears and the importance of cherishing our creations.
