Our company endorses "April Dream," an initiative to make April 1st a day for sharing dreams.
This press release represents the "dream" of Shikirama Inc.

That moment when a child smiles and says, "I did it!"
That single phrase can change a child.

Opportunities for children to truly feel their own growth
are not abundant in their daily lives.

In an age where comparisons with others are increasing,
we feel it is becoming even more important to create opportunities
for children to focus on "their own changes."

That is why we are committed to this.

April Dream: Bringing the moment when children's "I did it!" transforms into confidence, into their daily lives.

We are giving shape to this vision through "marukids."

"marukids," operated by Shikirama Inc.,
is a community that nurtures children's self-esteem through photography experiences.

We provide events and photography opportunities mainly in Sapporo, Tokyo, and Osaka.

You can see our latest activities and photo sessions on Instagram.

What we value at marukids is not the outcome,
but the discoveries and changes that emerge through the experience.

Children gradually build confidence
through various experiences.

These changes arise from even small experiences.

・Encountering new environments
・Interacting with people
・Expressing themselves in their own way

The accumulation of such experiences
remains within children as confidence.


Furthermore, through photography sessions,

・Posture and expressions
・Communication

skills that connect to daily life are acquired.

We value growth through enjoyable engagement,
rather than special training.

We aim to make an environment where children can discover their individuality
and take a step forward with confidence,
more accessible to them.

Not as a special experience, but as growth within daily life.
To provide all children with an opportunity for positive change.

That is the April Dream we envision.
