    If you make a reservation, everyone from adults to children can enjoy making chicken. Strictly speaking, it seems like any work is OK, even if it's not Haniwa. It takes 2 to 2 and a half hours to make one, but even then, when you start getting picky about it, you don't have enough time. Cleaning up starts at 4pm, so I thought it would be a good idea to at least get in and start at 1pm. I want to go again.

    Many cute clay figures lined up at the entrance of the museum welcomed us. Haniwa are made by kneading the clay, dried for about a month, and then fired before being received. The staff will carefully guide you, so even first-timers can feel at ease. They were very kind and offered support when the children were in trouble. It was a great time for not only the children but also the adults to enjoy the time they spent making something with all their heart while feeling the smell of the soil. Even though I'm a beginner, I wanted to make horses and birds instead of the standard haniwa, and as a result of paying attention to the details, it took me longer than usual to make them (probably over 3 hours). It seems that you can make a normal haniwa in about an hour and a half. You can choose the amount of soil from two types. Most people seem to be able to get by with a smaller amount, but as we were making it, my parents and child gradually outgrew it (lol) so I ended up buying more clay and sharing it along the way. So, if you're worried about whether you'll have enough, you can start making it with a smaller amount. You can choose to have it delivered or pick it up directly. I was informed that if I was worried about the item breaking during shipping, it was recommended that I pick it up, so I went to pick it up in person. In addition to large haniwa, it seems that you can also make small haniwa accessories, so if you don't have time, you might choose that option. Before making your own haniwa, please take a look around the group of ancient tombs nearby. Making clay clay while thinking about ancient romance will be a great social studies experience and tour.

    We had a clay-making experience with the Oshijo Hospitality Busho Corps (^^) It was so much fun that I want to go make clay clay again. It was also great to see the creative haniwa made by so many different people.

    From the Prefectural Route 128 (Saita Marisona Bank) intersection, go south on Prefectural Route 77 (Kofun Street) and it is near the Sakitama Kofun Park parking lot 🅿️. There are two types of buses: From Fukiage Station, take the Samadan underground train bound for Gyoda garage via Sama 🚶 15 minutes walk. The other option is to take the sightseeing base circular course from the bus terminal next to City Hall and get off at Kofun Koen-mae, which will be right in front of you. Next door is Kotobukiya Shokudo. Opposite the shop are the Futagoyama Tumulus, Atagoyama Tumulus, and Maruheyama Tumulus. The rows of cherry blossom trees are also spectacular during the cherry blossom season. At Haniwa-no-Yakata, located in the Sakitama Tumulus Group, you can experience making your own Haniwa with the help of an instructor. There are three steps before the haniwa is ready: After making the haniwa for about two hours on the same day, the haniwa is dried for about a month. After that, the haniwa is completed in the in-house kiln at 800℃ for about 7 hours.

    9~14時受付で、埴輪の製作体験ができます。踊る人、馬、猪等自由に選べ、それぞれアドバイスしてくれます。(約2時間)。当日の朝でもいいので事前に予約をした方が確実です。 費用は、粘土の代金600円(JAF会員500円のみ)のみ! 約2か月後に焼き上げて完成させてくれますが、自分自身で取りに行く(無料)か、箱代190円+着払いの郵送のいずれかを選べます。子ども連れでも、大人だけでも楽しめておすすめです!

    The price varies depending on the amount of soil, but for 600 yen per person, you can experience making a ``Haniwa'' at your leisure. It's a great way to kill time, and although there were many children with them, the adults were surprisingly serious and had fun. You can enjoy a relaxing holiday at a low price. 🅿️The space is quite large.

    Visited with my family. I had heard that it was difficult to get reservations for experiential learning during summer vacation, so I went there before summer vacation. I think it may be called a weekend, but the place is full in the morning. Reservations may be a must. During the hands-on learning, the person in charge explained things in an easy-to-understand manner, and I was able to start making the niwa easily. The hurdles seemed to have been lowered significantly for the children because they could choose a sample and they could create whatever character they wanted. I also had some friends who were making Pokemon. The person in charge told me things to be careful of while I was making it, and even checked on it after it was completed, so I was able to make it with peace of mind. This year, my children were small and I wasn't able to do well, but I want to get revenge next year.

    (Translated by Google) Knead the clay in the mood of an ancient person and shape it as you like. Unlike vessels, haniwa can be made with free ideas. When I look at the finished product, I often end up with something similar to myself for some reason. It's probably a crystal of its own towards clay. If you have been in love for a long time and you are at a loss, please visit and knead it again. (Original) 古代人の気分で粘土を捏ね、気の向くままに形づくる。 器と違い、埴輪は自由な発想で造ることが出来ます。 完成品を眺めると、何故か自分に似ているものが出来上がる事が多いです。 それは多分粘土に向かっか自分自身の結晶です。末永く愛で、なにかに迷ったときは、また捏ねるため、訪れて見てください。

    (Translated by Google) Reservations are recommended during the summer vacation! Weekdays are crowded, so it may not be possible to carry out the experience. Also, please note that only the 1kg course is available during the summer vacation. It takes about 2 hours to make 1kg of haniwa, so be careful with the time. You can make a pen stand for 500 yen, so it is recommended! (Original) 夏休み期間中は予約推奨です! 平日は混んでいるので体験実施できない可能性があります。 また、夏休み中は1kgのコースのみになっているので注意です。 1kgのはにわで大体2時間程度の制作時間になっているので時間には注意が必要です。 500円でペン立ても作れるのでオススメです!

    This is a facility where you can make haniwa. Normally clay is made by baking it after it dries naturally, but you can also take home the clay made with ceramic clay. Studying at the Sakitama Tumulus Group and making clay clay will be a great way to spend your summer vacation doing free research.

    I made a dancing haniwa with instructions on how to make it. I had a very good experience and only had to pay for the clay. Next time I want to make a different haniwa. I think it's better to think about what you're going to make in advance.

    It is very good activity for adults and children. You can make HANIWA here from scratch. Very reasonable ! Very kind staff too. There are a lots to do nearby, it is worth add to your plan. It does take few month to receive what you make though. They offer pick up or courrier.

    Both adults and children can enjoy making clay clay pottery. Once completed, you can receive it by mail, so people who live far away can feel at ease.

    (Translated by Google) It was my first time to experience Haniwa, but it was more fun than I expected. Haniwa will not be completed on that day, but it will be more fun because I can go back for other errands. The sisters at the reception were friendly and I had a fun experience (Original) ハニワ体験初めてでしたが思いのほか楽しかったです。 その日にハニワは完成しませんがまた行く用事が出来るので楽しみが増えます 受付のお姉さん達が気さくで楽しい体験ができました

    さきたま古墳公園内にある施設で、埴輪作り体験ができます。 基本の形の作り方を教わりますが、皆さん思い思いの形で作っていました。 だいたい2時間くらいで完成し、焼き上がって受け取るまで(着払い配送も可)、一ヶ月以上掛ります。 料金はJAF割ができました。 トイレは和式なので、小さいお子様は公園内のトイレで済ませた方が良いかもしれません。 週末は電話予約した方が良さそうです。

    作り方も教えてもらい楽しく出来ました。 1キロ、2キロと粘土を選べましたが、1キロで十分でした。
