[Spring 2026 New Product] Elekit Launches "Kaleido Flower," Gracefully Moving with Light

EK Japan Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Dazaifu City, Fukuoka Prefecture; Representative: Noriyuki Morishita), a company known for its "Elekit" electronic craft kits, will begin shipping "Kaleido Flower" (JS-6218), a craft kit featuring a solar-powered rotating flower, from April 15, 2026.

This product is a new proposal that aims to cater to girls and gift demands, offering "electronic crafting for decorative enjoyment," which differs from their previous mechanical and robot-focused products.

**Kaleido Flower**

"Kaleido Flower" is an electronic craft kit that converts sunlight falling on its solar panel into energy, causing its petals to rotate like a kaleidoscope. By combining two colors of uniquely shaped petals, it creates a fantastical movement as if the flower is continuously blooming when it rotates.

Once completed, it can be displayed by a window or elsewhere, allowing users to enjoy it as an interior decoration that continuously moves with light.

### Experience the Mechanism of Solar Power Generation

This environmentally friendly kit allows users to learn about structures that operate on natural energy without using batteries.

### The Experience Extends to "Decorating"

Since it can be enjoyed as an interior decoration even after completion, it offers value different from traditional crafts that are "made and then forgotten."

### Expansion to New Target Audiences

Moving away from the traditional focus on robots and mechanical items, this kit emphasizes design and emotional value, catering to girls, parent-child activities, and gift demands.

In recent years, STEM education has evolved into STEAM education, which fosters "creativity" and "sensibility" in addition to "scientific understanding." Based on this trend, this product was developed as a STEAM educational material that not only teaches scientific principles but also allows users to enjoy creating works by freely combining light, movement, and design. It was developed as an "aesthetic STEAM material" where users can learn scientific principles while also experiencing the beauty and healing after completion.
