Chitose Koyu-kai Social Welfare Corporation (Headquarters: Chiyoda-ku, Tokyo; Chairman: Satoshi Yamaguchi) held a community exchange event on May 2nd at its child development support facility, "Manmaru Chitose Tenma" (Kita-ku, Osaka), which opened in April 2026, targeting local preschool children and their guardians.
This event, held exactly one month after its opening, was planned with the desire to "first, have people casually come and play, and get to know the facility's atmosphere," especially considering it was during Golden Week.
On the day, through carp streamer making, games, and parent-child cooking experiences, it became a time filled with children's smiles and warm interactions with their guardians.
Background of Implementation
Child development support facilities are places that support children with developmental characteristics to spend their time safely and grow in their own way.
However, for general parenting households, there are many voices saying, "I don't know what kind of place it is" or "I'm hesitant to consult."
On the other hand, there is an increasing need from local guardians who say, "I want to consult about development" or "I want to hear from professionals."
Considering this situation, "Manmaru Chitose Tenma," which has just opened, held this community exchange event to further strengthen its role as a support base open to the community.
By naturally experiencing the facility's atmosphere through play, it became an opportunity to demonstrate to the community that it is an "easy-to-consult place."
Details of the Event on the Day
On the day, local children and guardians participated, creating a lively atmosphere throughout.
- Game play
Staff supported games with adjusted difficulty levels so that children could feel a sense of accomplishment.
- Carp streamer making experience
As a parent-child craft activity, original carp streamers were created according to the season.
- Carp streamer onigiri cooking
Parent-child smiles spread through easy cooking that incorporated elements of food education.
Guardians commented, "I didn't know such a place existed" and "I feel like I can easily consult," making it an opportunity for them to feel closer to the facility.

Comment from Chairman Satoshi Yamaguchi
Through this community exchange event, I am very pleased that many parents and children visited the newly opened "Manmaru Chitose Tenma."
Child development support facilities are not just places for children who need special support, but we want them to be a local hub where families facing anxiety and worries about childcare can consult with peace of mind.
The expressions children showed while playing and the warm words from all the guardians were a great encouragement to our staff.
We will continue to create an environment that supports the growth of each individual while connecting with the local community.
