All schools need to be designed like this. Humans were not meant to sit for 8 hours a day.
That's wrong in case of video games. We do it willingly.
10 hours :)) then must do a homeworks a few hours and suddenly is night
@@barcizstrnkova6368 Is that Otosaka, Ayumi?
@@Kalani_Saiko yup

Don't control them, don't protect them too much. Amen.
This makes a 25 year old me want to go back to kindergarten.
You are 30 now! 😀
@@beattheburning5413 Alok is still an absolute unit though.
I'm 22 years old and now I also want to go back to kindergarten lol.
Same
I was thinking exactly same thing!
forget kindergartens--can we design our universities and offices this way?
theevilqueen I'm not sure all of the same features would be practical but I definitely think places like Offices need more open areas and opportunities for less sitting or being sedentary for extended time periods.
theevilqueen Apple is building a new campus in Cupertino, USA with this idea in mind. Google had this approach years ago.
theevilqueen this is a subject that has come up often with a friend of mine the Architect Doug Cardinal. who designed the Museum of Civilization in Ottawa- Hull. Is it form over function and at what cost. Why can we not think outside of the box? and design our living space to be not only ergonomic and economical but very adventurous and to actually look out of the ordinary. Or they could be symbolic buildings or whatever. But I feel the future will lie in a designing a format that will continue to get cheaper and also meet some of the alternative goals. Over here it is always a matter of insurance. "Oh is little Johnny going to fall down? We better get a lawyer!" Know what I mean? I used to love the Environmental Studies building at Waterloo because the planners and the architectural students and faculty got the nicest spaces on the top floor which was a green house and a weather station and it was nice. You never had to turn the heat on as it was always warm in there and in the summer you could open all these windows and chutes to get a breeze blowing through there.
theevilqueen forget you STUPID GIRL
We can start with the new generation and it will fall in place thereafter.
His matter-of-fact way of speaking makes things funnier :) You know, he will come back, because it's a circle.
What a remarkable man... He really knows children and what they actually need as opposed to what we think they need. Brilliant - absolutely brilliant.
A lot of you are misunderstanding something at this school. You are not forced to go to this school. Schools in Japan are not like Americanized schools, there is no real "predetermined" school. You're free to choose whichever school you want to go to, regardless of distance, so no one is forcing parents to place their kids here, especially if they know their children wouldn't do well in an environment like this. This school is not perfect, but it's a start. It's not like regular kindergarten schools are any better, but having a variety of schools and structures allows a parent to have more choices to choosing the most ideal environment for their child.
Sound reasoning. Since they are so full of energy, you might as well let them express it in school so they don't hassle the parents when they get home lol
DtWolfwood They probably don't even need a designated nap time. They probably just pass out on their own.
JaySee5 who the heck has naps in kindergarden
wow..... i'm from canada but that's..... a daycare thing? school is for school, not naps.
***** In EU kids age 3-4 have nap time. Kids age 5 prepare for elementary school during that time.
same in canada
The kids are sooooo happy running around in this building ! they made my heart warm ! Their smile reminded me why I wanted to become an Architect !
Thanks for reminding me thae my goal was to make people happy !
same 🥺🥺
If you are an architect I really hope you are better than this guy...who desinged one of the lamest and least functional buildings I've ever seen.
Awesome idea - both from an architectural and educational perspective. It's sad to think much of this good work will be undone shortly after the kids have started going through elementary school.
Abroadin Japan OMG Chris I didn't think I'd spot you here! You're channel is amazing, keep up the fantastically entertaining work :D Also good point have you considered doing a vlog on the Japanese schooling system?
Raf31 I fear such a vlog would involve just sitting in a chair, crying, with a slow zoom and sad piano soundtrack for about 10 minutes.
Well so long as you're the protagonist of such a vlog I'm confident that it will be highly entertaining nonetheless. Huzzah for British wit!
Abroadin Japan As long as there is sad piano I'm in. Also if you could speaks with face like pitbull that would be great.
Abroadin Japan Who we are is most impacted in the first 5 years, this will leave a lasting impact on children's enthusiasm, playfulness, freedom to think outside boundaries and spirit. Even with the the impact of other schools, this place will leave a mark. Now we have to create a series of school through University, that leave people empowered, enabled, ennobled and deliriously excited to live great big amazing lives. We need to stop making people small, to fit the dictates of plutocrats.
I am an educator and I taught at university when was younger and have taught on and off adult education for years in various topics. This is the most revolutionary scene I have ever witnessed. We used to set up classrooms on the reserve where I am from and they were based a lot on what this man was presenting. To create independence., camaraderie and to ensure our community will have a future.
Now thats an idea worth spreading.
As an early childhood educator, I love everything about this school. Perfect environment for children to learn, grow, and thrive in.
dam!! wish i went to that school i would have not missed one day of school
Don jose Idiot. It is not a school but a kindergarten.
Seems you missed quite enough.
no fucken duhh, so kindergarten isn't school ? Critic (al)
@@_donjose in most countries no
If you went to school maybe you would know how to spell damn
Respect for Japan!!!
Love from india!!
Me too loving from india
I wish I had gone to a kindergarten like this! こんな幼稚園に行きたかった。素敵です！
Wow, this is easily one of my favorite ted talks I've seen!
It totally opened my mind to see architecture in a different way.
I've never considered the possibility that architecture can be used to educate the next generation to be more social and, I guess you could say, to enjoy life with playful exploration.
yes!
This man is a legend! What an amazing design, I wish I had this when I was in kindergarten. Or at work, this would be useful when you want to run away from your manager.
Yes, but ... it's a circle 😁
Yes! We need places like this for children and adults alike... Even adults have a need to run, jump, and climb on things...
we don't build kindergarten ... kindergarten build us
The energy there looks so amazing and positive
This is a small step in the right direction for humanity I believe
Love this innovative idea! I love how the school allows the children freedom to explore without being over-protective. The traditional school system forces children to sit in one spot for most of the day then label them as having ADHD when they want to move around. Also, a lot of schools have unfortunately cut out physical education. Physical activity/exercise is not only beneficial for your health but also wonderful for brain development, concentration, emotion regulation, sleep, etc.
This is not an idea..this is pedagogic principle since more than 150 years..and is done in most (good) Kingergartens. But that one is ideal for the opposite because you can basically monitor the kids as soon as they are on the outside and they only have open areas with no privacy...so that is basically how NOT to avoid being overprotective.
Amazing! Schools typically are nightmares! This looks perfect!
The Top 100 AMVs of all time! And very Radioactive
Independent science & independent reporting in Japan outlawed
In December 2013, the Japanese parliament passed a bill whereby public officials and private citizens could face ten years in prison for divulging “special state secrets”, and journalists, five years
All 23 districts of Tokyo contaminated with radiation, worse than at Chernobyl after the accident, and blood cells of children under ten are showing worrying changes; the WHO, the IAEA & the Japanese government cannot be trusted
parabot2 ???
StrykerTen The main goal of these new laws is to keep the data re Fukushima out of the public domain .
Just because there are no nuclear plants in Tokyo does not negate the fact that Tokyo was slammed by a radioactive cloud Radioactive contamination has also been detected in much of the food in japan .

Then come back and tell me Tokyo is not contaminated , this is radioactive waste .

In related news, childhood obesity disappears overnight!
Obesity isnt the main problem in japan
Wonderfully and wholly human...physically, socially, and spiritually!
Brilliant. Absolutely brilliant. I love it. All kindergartens should learn from this example and be more like this.
Very very cool, the speaker's humour is awesome. Wish more people would think outside the box and not be afraid to break norms.
Revolutionises the thinking, that kindergarten is pre-primary school and that it should follow exactly what primary school will be for these kids, into what it should be; a place for kids
I love this! I wish we would quit concentrating on material things and find things that can help the next generation, like this.
Incredible, sugoi!
I remember my kindergarten is placed aside a huge soccer field and my kindergarten itself have a very large area. This man really describe how I feel when I'm in school. When I was a kid, it always tingle me why we have to sit inside a packed classroom, filled with other kids and teachers. I always looking outside and if I have the chance to, I'll always running around the classroom. At the same time, I will try to go away from them and just watch from afar.
The concept of the openness is really intriguing. Because you know, kids are always running around, yes we do cry when we tumble, but in a few seconds, we'll run again!
I'll see to my friends in architectural studies view on this ideas. Thank you
This ws one of the most funniest and heartwarming TED talks I have seen, thankyou for the light hearted presentation, also I think such a kindergarten is every parents dream for their child.
Its awesome the idea that the architect have, education in the early years of children is important and the idea of kindergarten is great since children play a lot and that is what they need.
We were raised this way! We were left to our devices, left to get wet in the rain, got mud on our hands and our clothes. We learnt much on our own..
Wow!! I am an early childhood educator in Malaysia. I really admire this architecture and children's activities.
Wow! Love that. What an adorable man. Lucky kids having such an inspiring play space.
This is lovely! What a fun Kindergarten! Now kids would love to learn in this kind of environment. And because they love it so much, they will actually learn. Rather than dreading their time in school.
AMAZING!! Makes more so happy to see the children enjoying themselves so!
"The best kindergarten you’ve ever seen" I was immediately sceptical, but I do believe there are some great things to learn from this and hopefully others follow.
very agreed with let them learn about the world , which is sometimes hurts
That is a wonderful way to invest in education and revolutionize simultaneously. I am very interested how these children develop.
Absolutely! We coddle our kids in America to the point that they get their little feelings hurt and they don’t know how to deal with it. Unfortunately the comments were turned off for the forest kindergarten video. Excellent idea! What I found interesting was that the teacher stated that in 17 years of doing forest kindergarten teaching he only had to take a kid to the hospital once and it was caused by a parent. We want our kids to be outside playing instead of inside with video games but they get hurt and the first thing we do is drag them back inside.
Child or Adult People need this. Thank you for Share.
Really the current life need all these
Que vídeo inspirador! Crianças são o maior tesouro da humanidade! As escolas de jardim de infância deveriam ser todas assim! Parabéns aos envolvidos por este projeto incrível!
I really really love this kindergarten, I lived in the USA, but this is I've seen the best kindergarten.😘😍
While I appreciate the idea and can agree it would be better for a decent number of kids, I dont think it would be better for "all" kids. Speaking from personal experience I know I would have had an absolutely terrible time at this sort of school. I needed quiet environments, the ability to get a bit of distance from the sea of people when I need it and such. I went through a number of schools growing up, including a number of the more "unusual" schools. One was a school with no set class times, no defined class rooms and such. I did horribly there, it was an awful experience. On the other hand I spent some time at a school that had the resources to be more personalized. Class sizes were smaller and not age based but based on the level on the student. With the lower number of students to each class it meant classes were much quieter and could be much more personalized. I did fantastically there even skipping a number of years and I feel many more children would as well with that same personalized education.
In short, I can appreciate why this would be great for a number of kids, but I can see how it isnt applicable to everyone just based on how it wouldnt have work for me personally
That is true, but the fact is we still need a variety of schools in general. Not all schools need to be like this, but a great number more do.

Yeah, I think the problem comes down to the fact that "kids" arnt a standardized product, they are each unique, they each learn entirely differently. Any system that claims to be the perfect system for "kids" in a general sense is always going to let a certain number slip through the cracks, because there is no one size fits all for humans
Its an interesting thing to consider, and really come to think of it I dont think I have heard of any notable discussion about it, the idea that we could have different kinds of schools specialized towards different kinds of children. I have seen discussions about alternative kinds of schools that have, say, a bigger focus on elective classes and elective timetables to be more flexible to the student and such, but never the idea that we should have entirely different specialized schools, not outside of things like schools for the deaf or blind and such. Its an interesting thought, I think I need to give it a bit more thought. I have literally never even considered it before so I dont know what I think about the idea haha
It’s prek or kinder.....
I study psychology, and I myself is an introvert, and as a child, I was really always alone. However, their architecture is actually inclusive. It's because its preschool which means it is the time for physical and motor development and their concept really fits the needs of a child during this stage. And, I don't think that it would be hard for children of different personalities and preferences to addapt in this kind of environment. It's not only about the physical environment, but also to how the teachers motivate students to be themselves, and it's actually a good thing that in Japan, you need to value other people's comfort so you should not cause annoyance to other people. These things are being taught in their schools.
Nice way of dealing with the children's. Neither control them nor protect them. Allow them to learn themselves. Thank you.
Wow! So inspiring! That s the place where kids education starts, once they choose they're coping mechanism, it develops it does not change, so making sure they have chosen out of freedom not out of restriction it is absolutely world changing. I would have preferred growing up in a kindergarten like this, even do it was the school i did not like 😄, but this is a starting point to then change the schools as well. Thank you so much
I love the concept. Something inspiring and thank you for sharing your ideas.
This is amazing, truly amazing.
Love this idea, great for those that love outdoors. My daughter's gr. 1 class does morning runs after they sit down in the morning, and it is seperated from P.E. All the schools in Vancouver, B.C now keep the kids out rain or Shine, and dress for the weather with clean clothes to change into on really wet days.
Can i really go back to kindergarten??? I love this schoool !!!!
no boundaries...how awesome!
Amazing schooling concept and great idea... should be applied worldwide
This is excellent architecture!
Especially in a large city, for small kids the outside world is like a set of long corridors, you can't explore on your own, you can't walk on grass, can't walk on the street, can't go into most buildings.
So if they live in a small flat they often might spend most of their childhood going from a tiny flat into a tiny room at school via a set of long conceptual corridors when outside. If driven by car then it's yet another tiny space that makes distance abstract.
This particular design creates an effective massive space due to the loop and it's all in the sun while also having the same function as an indoor space.
This is also a great example that controlling kids and generally controlling learning is a lot less effective than simply focusing on setting up the best possible enviroment.
Rather than telling kids what to do, set up the enviroment so that the correct choice is the obvious one and let kids figure it out for themselves, thats the whole point of being a child, to make mistakes yourself - the point where you learn through other peoples mistakes on an institutionalised basis should be reserved I would say as late as last years of highschool and then university - otherwise there is a high risk of raising educated idiots who can quote shakespeare but cannot figure out how say King Lear applies to their own family life.
I design a kindergarten in this studio semester and this speech gives me a motivation of that i can change something about childeren lives and this make me helps them about their life struggles.This is the correct way to be architect.For a basic human size or a monkey size :)
一番感動した建物のひとつです。私も建築に携わる者ですが人の行動を変えてしまうデザインを作って行きたいと思わせてくれました。
This is the design that can affect and develop people's (in this case especially Children) behavior .
What is the exactly I would like to do my architect project in the future.
My god.. So incredible
Freedom to discover the world around them... Amazing
This is beautiful!
Good job! Keep on making meaningful videos! I really like them, and it would be great if you know how happy I am to see these children.
Absolutely brilliant idea! It is known that we learn better if we have enough exercise or at least some movement while learning. I wish more countries would follow. A very funny presenter as well.
Yes, we always expect a child to grow up to be strong, independent, happy, highly productive and sociable adult. They cannot be like that if we keep children wrapped in a bubble, protecting from every minor falls and forbidding them to even move a limb or express their loud voice and happy giggles.
Wow.... that is a fun/friendly kindergarten....amazing...I love it.
I like it a lot, I like that the speaker is fun and has a sense of humor, we should put it into practice
This place is amazing for children.
Wonderful concept. The design is quite brilliant.
Absolutely loved the architecture design ❤ Also eye opening concept he explained really is so true. 👌🏼
we should adapt this to our parks, where everything is round and open, kids can play and will come back where ever they run and parents can observe their kids from the centre and let them roam freely kids can play on such platforms where dods are welcome to stay on the ground level to play with kids~
This kindergarden and their builders and creators totally rock!
This is a great video about Kindergarten in Tokyo and the effects of design.
This really makes great sense. Lovely
A delightful presentation! 😀 I'd love to enroll my kids here, someday... When I have children 😊
it will be lovely to be there
This is the sweetest Ted Talk i have ever seen
i wish i was a kid in this kindergarden! fantastic!
it is an amazing school. Clearly that system does not work in all countries, we have different cultures.
But I like how it is that education is improving.
Physical borders are surprisingly important to the brain's memory system, if you go to another room to get something and forget it, you can go back to the room where you thought of it and remember it. Also the film "Awakenings" (based on a novel by Oliver Sacks) demonstrates that physical delineation is a faculty of memory. Temple Grandin's more humane slaughter house is built on the understanding that shadows, movement and stark contrast are disturbing to livestock.
This is a kindergarten built from love and understanding of children rather than trying to insert them into a conveniently-shaped adult world. It gives those with energy room to burn it off and the freedom to do so, and a lovely refuge as well as inclusion to heal the easily overwhelmed.
I bet those are some very well-behaved children :)
Awesome ideas - god bless you guys
Incredible idea !! Definitely unique and need of an hour !!
amazing and inspiring! good job :)
Un maravilloso ejemplo de creatividad e innovación para hacerla educación más significativa y trascendente... mucho que aprender para evolucionar nuestros sistemas de enseñanza y aprendizaje todos niveles.
The school they go to next will have A lot to live up to.Maybe they can just keep adding stuff to the current structure as they get older, Like science and research labs and gardens and tools and stuff.
Now this is a good way of raising children. Restraints mean nothing to kids, they need to be run free and learn from first hand experience.
This is extraordinary....
Excellent Idea and Excellent design. I would like to see similar experience for kids designed in a place that has winter for 6 months in a year.
I love the design of this school!
小盆友可爱到满溢出来，简直就是天堂啊~
就是会被日本人的这种细致打动到~
It is very good talk because they help us to become aware of the cuiddo of the small and realize that they have a very extensive imagination and that helps them to develop new things if we give them the opportunity to do it
absolutely nice design which put children back into the way they should be. and perhaps all human being should somehow live and work in this way, more than working like a machine.
Yes. The way we live and work is not natural. No wonder we're all sick, overweight, and mentally ill
One of the best Ted talks tbh, I fuckin laugh so much
Awesome!! Such schools and colleges have to be across the globe!! When will that happen?
I want to move to Japan just so my kids (when I have them in 10000 years time) can go to this kindergarten! XD
what a kindergardern
MORE schools for children should be like this. ... STOP making children bloody adult before their time ... LET them be children.
Well I hope I'm getting ur name right.either mysty,or misty.its nice to meet another child of God.. One thing I do believe in.I do believe I won't be seeing my 50 birthday. I'm only 40 I honestly think Christ will be coming very soon.probably b4 I'm forty 5.
It is nice to meet u.hope it hear from u again.
We can HOPE that CHRIST is coming and soon. I am living in hope and knowing that is going to be an incredible day
+MysteStorm been a while since I've heard from u.nice to a response. I give Christ less than 5 years .the rapture will be soon
MysteStorm hello there myste.the signs r here.there's over 2 million people who have taken the mark of the beast.that microchip I've been hearing so much on.they appearantly have not idea what they did to themselves. When I hear about the ten governments over the world.ill know the rapture is closer
+Daniel O'Bannon If we let ourselves, we will be terrified. Without the surety that God will keep our immortal souls safe, what is to come would be even more terrifying. And the fact so many will unwittingly take the mark of the beast ... is very distressing. We have to pray their eyes are opened before it is too late, and withstand being forced ourselves. I worry for the innocents who will be destroyed by the minions of the beast. Tribulations has not truly begun yet, the rising violence, hate and bile of its evil servants, we know this will grow. Persecution of God's loved ones will grow worse. But the time of Jesus' return grows closer, so that is the upside ... watch, wait and be patient, and stay strong in your belief, for that is what will save you, God is the only way, and Jesus the only path to follow. That Sick cult of death follows Satan (allah) ... and more succumb to its evil cluthces, even the head of the Catholic church has succumbed. I know not the words to type, but I know we can only keep the TRUTH getting out as much as possible, and pray that the strength of the Holy Spirit blooms in more and more people, turning others to the light, and away from the darkness.
I wish they would openly credit Maria Montessori. That's the philosophy the school is following.
Amazing!!
This is just great :')
