Children’s drawing songs. Everyone’s favorite play songs (11–20)
raccoon dog
When you actually try drawing animals yourself, it often turns out to be harder than you expected, and you might not remember what they look like.
That’s when animal drawing songs come in handy.
If you learn them, you can easily draw cute animals.
With this raccoon dog (tanuki) drawing song, it might be fun to get creative—try adding a leaf on its head or drawing the body, too.
If you teach it to your child while singing, they can enjoy learning and remember many different animals.
Kossy
This is the drawing song for “Kossy,” a character from the children’s show Miitsuketa! Kossy is a mysterious blue chair that can talk and move.
Kids—especially younger children—love Kossy.
Let’s try drawing Kossy! The drawing song is sung very slowly, so even little ones can have fun drawing along while they sing.
The repeated phrases, like a call-and-response, are especially likely to delight children.
decorated cake
Luxuriously decorated cakes often appear in picture books and in party scenes in anime.
Those big, colorful, delicious-looking cakes are something children long for.
Let’s try drawing one of those large decorated cakes with a drawing song! It’s fine to draw on regular paper, but why not draw a big decorated cake on a large sheet instead? Afterwards, everyone can color it in together.
It would be perfect as an activity for a birthday party, too.
Kumamon
Kumamon is a yuru-chara mascot created as part of a project to promote Kumamoto Prefecture when the Kyushu Shinkansen fully opened.
Alongside Funassyi from Chiba, he has become one of the two leading regional mascots promoting local areas.
Thanks to Kumamon’s presence, many people have probably come to know about Kumamoto Prefecture or become interested in it.
Kumamon is so cute that you don’t just want to look at him—you want to try drawing him, too.
In the video, the portrait that Kumamon himself draws doesn’t really look much like him, but let’s just chalk that up to his charm.
dinosaur
There are many different kinds of dinosaurs, of course, and dinosaurs often appear in movies and as character motifs, making them very popular with children.
Here is a drawing song that lets you easily draw dinosaurs.
It’s a parody of the well-known children’s song “Yuki” (“Snow”), and just by learning it, you can draw three representative types of dinosaurs.
It’s a handy drawing song because by memorizing the lyrics, you also learn the dinosaurs’ names.
Be sure to try drawing while singing it together!
Agumon (Digimon)
Digimon Adventure is especially popular among boys in anime and movies.
“Digimon” refers to “Digital Monsters” that exist in the Digital World.
There are many types, ranging from cute ones that girls might like to rugged and powerful-looking ones.
Among them, Agumon—popular for its dinosaur-like appearance—can actually be drawn easily with a drawing song.
At first glance the character may seem hard to draw, but with a drawing song it’s surprisingly easy to sketch smoothly.

Matsuko Deluxe
Matsuko Deluxe, whom we see on some TV channel almost every day.
With that distinctive way of speaking and keen, niche observations, they’re popular with everyone from adults to children.
And now, Matsuko Deluxe has even become the subject of a drawing song! The tune is a parody of “Do You Want to Build a Snowman?” from Frozen, which kids love, so it should be easy and approachable for children to sing along to, right? It’s a very cute drawing song that also captures Matsuko’s signature features.
