Hobonichi Pencil Board (Gurunpa’s Kindergarten)For A6 Size / A5 Size / Weeks

    Gurunpa’s Kindergarten is a beloved children’s book from over 50 years ago, first released in 1965. The longtime favorite book was written by Minami Nishiuchi and illustrated by Seiichi Horiuchi.



    We created pencil boards featuring illustrations from the book, with each size using a different drawing.



    The Gurunpa’s Kindergarten pencil boards come in three sizes: A6, A5, and for the Weeks. Keeping it underneath the page you’re writing on allows the reinforcement to provide an enjoyable writing experience. They fit perfectly to the size of the techo book, and will prevent your pen from sliding on the page, and not leave indentations on the opposite page. By keeping it in your techo, the tab on the corner will mark the current page you’re on for easy access.
