About Kawarie Zabuton Japonska Blazina
Imam veliko časa in denarja, da otroke pospremim in zadržim za obilno življenje. Kot vzrok za pospeševanje povezave z območjem je omenjeno povečanje, ki ne more pogosto trajati, in dvojna dohodka ter jedrska družina. Tako se starš in otrok dotakneta v napornem vsakdanjem življenju in čas je v izobilju. Slikovnica in talna blazina sta bila želja, ki ga želim imeti. Predlagano je komunikacijsko orodje za starša in otroka. Vsakodnevno se čutijo in uživajo naravne spremembe in pretok časa.
