* ■School distribution campaign overview *
The distribution campaign, which targets elementary schools across the country, aims to encourage students to actually use the “Sex, Body, and Mind Cards” created by Gokigen Lab in elementary school classes, thereby promoting the discussion of sexuality through adolescence. The purpose of this event is to provide children with a sense of familiarity and provide them with an opportunity to learn about their bodies and minds.
This campaign targets elementary schools across the country and will distribute “Cards to learn about sex, body, and mind” to only 50 schools that apply.*
I will do it. In addition, a FamiOne expert will personally visit one of the elementary schools to which we distributed the “Sex, Body, and Mind Card” and provide an on-site lesson on sex education.

School distribution campaign special site * ■Won the 18th Kids Design Award! About “Cards to learn about sex, body, and mind” *
The 18th edition of the sex education tool “Cards to learn about sex, body, and mind” developed by Gokigen Lab, which provides products and services to solve the mental and physical worries and issues faced by women. Won the Kids Design Award. “Cards to learn about sex, body, and mind” is a set of 15 cards that contains information about sex, body, and mind that children from preschool to adolescence should know, as well as a message to parents.
Currently, a variety of books related to sex education, including picture books, are on sale, but some say that some of the content is not appropriate for the reading age group, or that the story they are trying to convey is limited.
Therefore, we planned and developed a card-type product that can be handed out to children whenever they have an interest or question. You can give the necessary cards in stages as your child grows, and it also includes information that adults should also know, such as sexual consent and the HPV vaccine.
The important thing is not to make the topic of sex taboo. We aimed to create a card that would help build a parent-child relationship where children would feel that it’s okay to talk about sex and the body at home.
