At the Japanese International School of Phnom Penh (JISPP), story time recently became a magical experience thanks to the introduction of apron theatre from Japan. This creative teaching tool features a beautifully decorated apron covered in colorful animals, trees, and flowers, transforming storytelling into a visually engaging performance.

As the teacher narrated, students watched the scenes unfold on the apron, eagerly pointing to the images and predicting what might happen next. The result was an immersive experience that captured their imaginations and encouraged active participation.

Inspiring Imagination and Creativity

The apron theatre is more than just a fun activity—it’s a learning tool designed to:

  • Spark imagination by visually illustrating stories.

  • Encourage creativity through interactive storytelling.

  • Improve listening and comprehension skills.

  • Strengthen communication as students discuss the unfolding scenes.

At JISPP, this method aligns with the school’s commitment to fostering a love for learning through engaging and innovative approaches.

A Glimpse into Japanese Educational Culture

Apron theatre is a beloved teaching resource in Japan, often used to make lessons more dynamic and interactive. By incorporating it into the curriculum, JISPP connects students not only to the joy of storytelling but also to Japanese cultural traditions in education.

This hands-on method helps children experience learning with all their senses, making lessons more memorable and impactful.

Continuing the Journey of Creative Learning

With a collection of apron theatre designs available, JISPP plans to use them in various lessons to inspire curiosity, creativity, and engagement.
