The activity of a person depends on the quantity of his or her relevant knowledge and resources. Tacit knowledge, accumulated through his/her experience, is particularly decisive for understanding the purpose, interpreting data, evaluating circumstance and deciding action. The Japanese, while possessing a plenty of explicit knowledge acquired in a passive manner, have significantly lost their tacit knowledge because of the facile modern lifestyle and decreased opportunities of playing in childhood which constitutes primordial experiences for the personality. The results are poorer physical and mental capacities, the latter including communication with others, sensibility, and evaluation of things, phenomena and information. This is a serious drawback to innovation that is a prerequisite for survival of a developed country. We need, therefore, a social system that enriches primordial experiences in childhood and provides their equivalents for adults, which should be important sources of innovative ideas and skills for their development.
