In this paper, the result of an inventory of plants (which are used in children's play) found on campus of Toyo Eiwa University is presented and how these plants are used is described. Each description includes the Japanese plant name, Latin name, name of children's play or game where it is used, the name of the part(s) of the plant used in that particular game or play, and the literary source of this plant's use in this way. Among the plants on the Toyo Eiwa University campus, 206 different species were found and these can be used in 588 types of children's play or games. These plants therefore are useful in promoting learning through nature and the enrichment of life. A plan for utilizing this information to develop learning programs for students and people of the surrounding communities is also described.
