This is the May 2019 song “Osanpo March.” It’s a marching tune where children keep moving forward as they lose themselves on top of a rainbow, in outer space, inside dreams, or in a maze of sweets.

It’s a piece filled to the brim with children’s dreams.

While it’s called a “stroll,” it’s a dreamy song that makes it feel as if the kids have become adventurers.

It’s perfect for a walk—one that makes you want to head out for a stroll and even use it as background music.

We go for a walk, hopping and bouncing around the Earth.

It’s a bright, upbeat song that says by bouncing, you can even see everyone’s smiles and tomorrow itself.

At concerts and the like, it seems people add call-and-response lines such as “Up to here!” and “Come on over!”

I’ll give you a medal.Yokoyama Daisuke / Mitani Takumi

This is a very kind-hearted song about giving medals to the things and people that make you happy and bring a smile to your face—like the sun, lunchboxes, moms, and trains.

Expressing gratitude is so important, isn’t it? Anyone would be delighted to receive a medal.

Try making one for someone you want to say “thank you” to.

Moku-moku fuyu—nHanada Yuuichirou, Ono Atsuko

"Moku Moku Fuyuun" Okaasan to Issho (Live-Action Full Cover)
Moku-moku fuyu—nHanada Yuuichirou, Ono Atsuko

This is a song that was played as the January 2018 song on NHK Educational TV’s “Okaasan to Issho.” When did you first notice, as a child, that your breath looks white in winter? You might have gotten excited wondering what it was, tried it over and over, or challenged your friends to see how long you could breathe out toward the sky.

Those fun feelings are captured in this song.

Even as an adult, doing it now still gives you that tingling sense of winter, doesn’t it? It might be even more fun to sing it while puffing your breath onto your palms together with your child.
