We had a fun 2.5 hour time att the weaving shop! We could pick so many different colours! My five year old had much fun(she did a bit herself, and then roamed around the shop). Notice that the shop is not so big, so depending on your child I think it should not be too small.

You can freely create teacups, small bowls, large plates, mugs, etc. according to your purpose and preferences. The rhythmic shaping process unique to the electric potter's wheel feels like you are talking to the clay. Enjoy your time immersed in the moist feel of the clay. You can choose from more than 10 types of glaze (color) within the experience fee. The instructor will carefully scrape, glaze, and fire the completed work, and it will be finished in about two months. After firing, you can pick it up at the classroom or have it delivered to your home for an additional shipping fee. In addition, if you want to make a larger work or try multiple works, you can purchase additional clay on the day (from 1,100 yen per 1 kg). The instructor will carefully support you from the very beginning in how to use the potter's wheel and how to shape the potter's wheel, so even beginners can feel at ease. There is a very easy-to-understand video teaching material, so you can watch it and expand your imagination before starting, so you can smoothly start making things. This is a feature of the electric potter's wheel experience at Tsumu. Participation by one person is also welcome. Depending on the situation, up to 4 people can experience together in one group. ◎Access 3 minutes walk from Exit 3 of Honmachi Station on the Midosuji Subway Line. Easy access from Shinsaibashi, Namba, and Umeda! ◎What to bring ・Apron (or clothes that you don't mind getting dirty) ・Towel to dry your hands ◎Recommended points ・Beginners welcome! Includes detailed instruction. Experience kneading the clay, from rough kneading to chrysanthemum kneading. Can create up to two pieces with 1kg of clay. Choose from over 10 glazes. Shape rhythmically on an electric potter's wheel. Finished pieces can be picked up or delivered in about two months. Additional clay can be purchased on the day (from 1,100 yen/1kg). Can also try large pieces such as large plates. Can accommodate up to four people in one group. Conveniently located near the station and with excellent access.
Kana was an amazing instructor with great patience and encouragement. She thoroughly showed the ropes of kneading the clay with 'flower' shaping as prep; wheeling to further prep the clay by 'killing' it before giving it life with your creation/expression. Simply put, she showed a firsthand demo overlayed with explanations behind the underlying philosophical concepts. I really enjoyed her teaching and she was very encouraging through all my failures. Highly recommend it for first-timers, solos, couples, friends, fam, and all ages - so much fun!
