Interactions That Turn Children's New Term Anxiety into 'It's Okay': Online Live Event Summarizing Key Points Held on April 1

Pastel Communication Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Toshima-ku, Tokyo; Representative Director: Kayoko Yoshino), which operates the online parenting school "Nicotto! Juku" where mothers raising children with developmental disorders or in the gray zone can learn and consult at any time, will hold an online live event on Wednesday, April 1, 2026, at 12:00 PM. The theme is "The World's Most Fun Grade Promotion Preparation: The Single Point That Turns New Term Anxiety into 'It's Okay'."

Hello. This is an announcement regarding the Nicotto! Live hosted by the online parenting school "Nicotto! Juku," where children can get closer to their dreams for every piece of common sense their mothers let go of.

In recent years, the number of truant school children has been on the rise according to surveys by the Ministry of Education, Culture, Sports, Science and Technology, drawing attention as a social issue. Especially during periods of environmental changes such as moving up a grade or entering a new school, children's anxiety and stress are likely to increase, which can lead to reluctance to attend school or a decline in motivation. On the other hand, preparations for moving up a grade tend to focus on external measures such as "reviewing daily rhythms" and "reviewing studies," and how to engage with children's anxiety is easily overlooked.

Therefore, this time, we will hold an online live event to learn about how to interact at home, focusing on the anxiety of children that tends to increase before advancing to the next grade or entering a new school.

As a first attempt for this live event, guided by an announcer, we will carefully select content related to "how to interact to nurture a child's confidence" from past Nicotto! Live sessions that have received a great response, and deliver it as a compilation. By organizing and receiving past live content, it becomes clear what to start with, providing an opportunity to connect anxiety before the new term into concrete actions.

Before the major change of moving up a grade or entering a new school, it is believed that engaging with children in a way that connects to confidence, rather than forcibly suppressing their anxiety, will help support their subsequent adaptation to school life and proactive behavior. We hope this live event will provide hints for finding the right way to interact with each individual child.

## What you can gain from this live event
- A perspective that turns anxiety before advancing/entering school into "It's okay"
- Ways of interacting that draw out a child's sense of "I can do this"
- Hints for communication that lead to confidence in daily life
- Ingenuity at home to prevent reluctance to attend school

## Recommended for those who
- Feel their child's anxiety is getting stronger towards advancing to the next grade or school
- Are anxious about reluctance to attend school or adaptation in the new school term
- Want to know how to interact to nurture their child's confidence
- Are struggling with how to handle children with developmental characteristics or high sensitivity
