Gurunpa’s Kindergarten Washi Tape

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.

This washi tape is decorated with famous scenes from Gurunpa’s Kindergarten.

The tape is made by mt, the world’s leading washi tape brand available in over 20 countries. The mt brand is by industrial tape manufacturer Kamoi Kakoshi, so the quality is very high. The width for this tape design is 18 mm (0.7"), giving it an easy-to use size that holds things well.

You can cut between the images to decorate your pages with the designs, or you can use strips to paste photos or notes onto your pages. You can also stick some onto your disposable water bottle or umbrella to identify them as yours.

There are all kinds of uses for this washi tape that will let you enjoy Gurunpa in your daily life.
