The once-a-year sports day! These days, it’s become standard to include a dance performance as one of the events, and many teachers probably find themselves wondering each year, “Which song should we use this time?” There are a few classic kids’ dance songs, but of course you also want to dance to the latest hits.

In that case, how about dancing to YOASOBI’s “Idol”? As the opening theme for the anime “Oshi no Ko,” it’s incredibly popular and known by both children and adults.

It’s recommended for ages 4 and up, and the choreography can be simplified with arranged moves, so give it a try!
