9 years of experience as a nursery school teacherShibata Risa
I am an active nursery school teacher with 9 years of experience. After graduating from university, I worked at a daycare center. The time I spent happily with children—playing piano, singing songs, and doing finger-play—are priceless memories to me. Currently, while raising three children of my own, I work at an after-school day service, engaging with children and providing individualized developmental support. Drawing on my diverse experiences as a childcare worker and as a mother, I hope to express and convey my thoughts through writing.

During my student years at Kyoto College of Science and Technology, I studied a wide range of fields including sound, lighting, and video technology, building a foundation in comprehensive stage production and creative expression. After graduation, I joined a music production company, where I still work, consistently building experience in production and engaging in a variety of music-centered tasks. Currently, I mainly handle articles for children, drawing on what I’ve learned about parenting and what I feel and discover through daily interactions with my kids. I hope my work can be of help to you, even in a small way!

Nursery schools and kindergartens have lots of events throughout the year, like birthday parties and fun gatherings.

It can be quite a challenge to come up with performances and content every time! Many teachers may be struggling with a lack of ideas.

In this article, we introduce recommended skits and entertainment for nursery schools that will liven up events for both teachers and children.

We’ve gathered ideas that are sure to make participating kids smile, including solo performances as well as plays and dances put on by all the teachers together.

Event performances are a great chance for teachers to shine! Make full use of your creativity and put on a wonderfully fun event for the adorable children who are looking forward to it.

Dance “Fruit Carnival”

Dance “Fruit Carnival”

Let’s dance to the kids’ favorite song, “Fruit Carnival.” Apples, oranges, bananas, mandarins, strawberries, and grapes appear in the song.

It would be fun to dress in the colors of each fruit and dance as if you were that fruit.

Red, orange, yellow, and purple—so colorful to look at! Watching the children all dressed up and dancing makes everyone feel happy.

In conclusion

How did you like our recommendations for performances and entertainment? There were plenty of fun ideas that kids will love.

When gathering a large group, it’s best to plan activities that are easy to see and understand even in a spacious venue.

Rather than having only the teachers on stage run the show, invite the children in the audience to join in—creating a sense of unity will make things even more exciting.

We hope it becomes a memorable day filled with smiles for everyone, both those doing the celebrating and those being celebrated.

Use the ideas we introduced as inspiration and try brainstorming your own.

Wishing you a wonderful, fun-filled time!
