The Seiko Museum is engaged in various activities to make learning about time and timepieces more enjoyable.

Activities for Children

Watchmaker Workshop

Participants learn about the mechanisms of a timepiece from one of Seiko’s technicians, and get to assemble a watch from minute parts using the techniques of a craftsman to create a watch that will keep time accurately. By assembling their own watch with their own hands, participants can experience the true wonder of these time-keeping tools.
At the same time, this experience creates an occasion to think about the importance of time as a limited resource.

Seiko Exciting Clock School

The Seiko Exciting Clock School is a school-visiting program to help children appreciate the interesting aspects of time and timepieces, as well as the joy of making things and the importance of teamwork.
It started as recently as 2017 at two schools in Sumida ward, Tokyo, and since 2018 it has been gradually expanding to include other areas around Tokyo.
