Toothbrushing SongŌsugi Kumiko
There have always been songs about brushing your teeth, no matter the era, haven’t there?

It’s said to have aired in the early 1980s (the first half of the Showa 50s), and it’s the quintessential Showa-era children’s song—but maybe that very quality will sound fresh to kids today! It’s the perfect tune for when you wake up, before heading out, or whenever you want to reset your mindset.

It would be great if the whole family could help with finishing the child’s brushing.
The chant “Mucho!” is adorably cute, too.
Toothbrush Trainkumai motoko
This song is hugely popular with children as a fun track for brushing teeth.
Its charm lies in Motoko Kumai’s gentle singing voice and the unique lyrics themed around trains.
While depicting a train running through the mouth, the lyrics move forward with a catchy “choo-choo” rhythm.
Released in November 2020, it’s also included on the album “Mainichi Seikatsu Song ~Sekken de Te wo Araou~” (Everyday Life Songs ~Let’s Wash Our Hands with Soap~).
It’s perfect not only for toothbrushing time at preschools and kindergartens, but also for singing along with your child at home to help make brushing a fun habit.
