Created by Sho Fukuda, drawing on his experience in early childhood education, it features playful exchanges between animals and cheerful calls that make it great fun.
It was broadcast in February 2018 as the “Song of the Month” on NHK E-TV’s Okaasan to Issho and included on the album Tomodachi no Hana.

Yokai Shiritori
The song “Yokai Shiritori” features all kinds of yokai in its lyrics.
Listen closely to hear which yokai appear.
Since it’s structured as shiritori, you might also enjoy it as a kind of wordplay.
It could be fun to ask the children which yokai they like and work their original yokai names into the song to get everyone excited.
It’s a tune that can be enjoyed in many settings, such as summer festivals or overnight daycare events in the summer.
By all means, try creating a new yokai song together with the children.
