A Song at Age Six
Created in 2018 by Kanako Miura, an active childcare worker, “The Song of Six” is now sung at kindergartens and nursery schools across Japan.
It’s an original song crafted to accompany a child’s growth from birth to age six.
Its simple, heartwarming melody and message are truly moving.
Listening to the carefully written lyrics, the word “thank you” rings like a treasured jewel.
It’s a song that lets you feel each child’s individual growth, making it perfect not only for recitals but also for graduation ceremonies.
A precious treasureShinzawa Toshihiko
This song, with its bright and lively vocals, is perfect for singing at graduation ceremonies and recitals.
Incorporating sign language while singing makes it even more moving and heartfelt.
It was included on an album released in August 2003 and is known as a classic graduation song.
It’s often performed to celebrate children’s growth, warming the hearts of parents and teachers alike.
The lyrics are filled with the pure feelings of children, and singing it together is sure to deepen the bonds within the class.
Be sure to sing it as a song that will become a cherished memory!
Let’s draw a picture in the blue sky.
The chorus in the hook, with its striking shout of “Hey, yah!”, makes it a song that kids can enjoy singing along to.
The lyrics beautifully evoke children holding their dreams close to their little hearts and spreading their wings toward the boundless sky.
The instantly memorable, easy-to-listen-to melody is refreshing and leaves an impression like a clear, sunny sky.
It’s a bright song that seems to stir up strength from deep within the listener’s heart—I’d love to hear children sing it with all their energy.

“Ne” is a heartwarming song that expresses the wish to stay close friends no matter how old we get.
Think of all the friends you’ve spent time with until graduation—those who worked hard with you through various events at nursery or kindergarten, the ones who helped you when you were in trouble, and even the friends you sometimes quarreled with—and try singing with them in mind! You can express your gentle feelings for your friends through a pop melody.
It would be great if you can sing it with lots of energy.
It will be sunny tomorrow.
In 1999, during the month when Kentaro Hayami and Ayumi Shigemori graduated as the singing big brother and big sister on NHK’s “Okaasan to Issho,” the song “Ashita wa Hareru” was performed.
It’s a perfect song for farewells and new beginnings.
Its message—that graduation isn’t a sad goodbye, and that you can always remember—really strikes a chord.
It’s also an ideal, moving song to tell children stepping onto a new path, “You’re not alone—it’s going to be okay.”
