Kebon! Ryusoulger
The ending song of the tokusatsu Super Sentai drama “Kishiryu Sentai Ryusoulger” is “Que Boom! Ryusoulger.” It’s a bright, cheerful number with an upbeat samba rhythm that’s really easy to groove to.
The choreography is simple, so even boys who aren’t confident with dance routines should be able to manage it.
Best of all, there’s an official video where the Ryusoulgers themselves teach the moves, so kids will likely get hooked and dance along.
Pardon me—this is Kamiyado.
KAMIYADO, an idol unit formed in 2014 out of Harajuku, released this song in 2018.
It’s a fan favorite that ranked first in a fan poll, and in 2020 a dance music video featuring members Mei Hashima and Miki Hashima was released.
It’s the kind of track that blends festival vibes with a hero-song feel, and just listening to it makes you happy—and the choreography is super cute! While you’ll need a sense of rhythm, the moves themselves are very simple.
Many of the dance steps link directly to the lyrics, so try practicing while singing along.
Mickey Mouse March
One essential song for kids’ dance routines is the Mickey Mouse March.
Since it’s a march, the rhythm is easy for children to get into.
While it’s often used for marching, it’s also great as a dance song with simple choreography.
Many kids love Disney, so it’s a tune both dancers and audience can enjoy.
Perfect for nursery and kindergarten recitals!
Poupelle of Chimney Town
This song, sharing the same title, is sung by Rozarina and serves as the theme for the film adaptation of the picture book “Poupelle of Chimney Town,” illustrated by Akihiro Nishino of the comedy duo King Kong.
The lyrics evoke scenes from the story of “Poupelle of Chimney Town,” and the charming melody is genuinely exciting.
It seems there’s also an official dance for this song, making it a perfect dance number for children to perform.
With some creativity in the costumes, it could become an adorable dance performance.
Anpanman Ondo
Everyone loves Anpanman! Here’s a Bon-odori-style song from Anpanman that’s perfect for festival time.
Even if you’re not familiar with Bon Odori, an Anpanman dance tune makes it easy for kids to join in! With simple choreography, you can enjoy the festive mood.
It’s great for events like summer festivals at kindergartens, or you could try a little dance when you go to a festival with friends.
Wearing a yukata or a festival happi coat adds to the atmosphere, so it’s highly recommended!
Where are the mushrooms from? They’re from the mountain.
This is the song of the delightful mountain idol mushroom, “Kinoko Dokonoko Oyama no Ko.” The dance is easy enough for younger and middle kindergarteners to perform without any problems.
It’s actually a dance number often used in kindergarten and nursery school recitals.
Let’s all put on mushroom hats and dance with energy! It’s gender-neutral, so both boys and girls can enjoy dancing.
For kids whose dream is to become an idol in the future, this is a great place to start!
