[Media] “Hapience,” a STEAM Toy for Girls

I saw a workshop led by Ganbare-Ruya and Professor Kuro-Labu at the Workshop Collection Online event held in March that used “Hapience,” a STEAM toy for girls, and it piqued my interest, so I bought some to try making it at home.

The very next day! I was asked for my thoughts on that very STEAM toy series for girls, so I couldn't help but share my thoughts.
