[Hand-play Song] Mixed Juice [Koarubiyori]

This is a hand-play song themed around mixed juice, a drink full of various fruits that kids love.

In the mixed juice made in this song, we mix apples, grapes, strawberries, and cherries.

Each fruit is hidden among facial features that resemble the shape of that fruit.

Once you find the fruits in the face, use your arms to show putting them into a blender and mixing them.

When the mixed juice is ready, give it as a present to your friends or to Mom and Dad—they’ll surely be delighted!

Chochi-chochi Awawa (hand play song)

Traditional Japanese nursery rhymes are a charming way to spend quality time with your baby.

With endearing hand and facial movements, look your child in the eyes and gently hold hands as you play together.

Perfect for deepening the bond between caregivers and children, this work has been featured in various educational programs and events, and its appeal has been passed down across generations.

You can play with your baby on your lap or while lying down, allowing you to adapt flexibly to their condition and mood.

With a caregiver’s gentle singing and warm touch, enjoy a delightful time filled with your baby’s smiles.

yomogi-jōbu nowarabeuta

Spring children's song / For the April–May seasonal festivals: [Yomogi-Jobu no]. I'd like to play it to coincide with the festival.

‘Yomogi-joubu no’ is a fun hand game that tickles children’s playful spirits.

Through a game where kids tap each other’s bottoms with mugwort or iris leaves, they can feel the power of plants and the changing seasons.

The lyrics and rhythm are simple, so even very young children can learn it easily and quickly get absorbed.

If you include it during a spring walk, kids can move their bodies while enjoying contact with nature.

Since everyone sings while playing tag, it would also be a hit as a sports day activity.

Let’s enjoy this lively hand game that brings out children’s smiles and energy!

[Summer classic! Hand-play song] The Fish Jumps

“Sakana ga Hanete” is a classic hand-play song that kids love.

Besides moving their hands to the music, you can adapt it to check for forgotten items using familiar things like hats, masks, and gloves.

You can also swap “stuck to the head” for a ribbon, crown, or straw hat; “stuck to the eyes” for sunglasses or a telescope—or goggles on pool days.

Incorporate seasonal items too to boost the children’s excitement.

[Hand Play Song] Mitsuya Cider

The hand game inspired by the refreshing fizz of Mitsuya Cider is a big hit with kids! The choreography, which uses fingers to count numbers as you go, also helps with number learning.

With its breezy rhythm and fun movements, it’s perfect for keeping spirits high even in hot weather.

It’s ideal for starting an activity or when you want to draw everyone’s attention.

When teachers and children enjoy it together, it creates summer memories too.

You can freely adapt it by changing the tempo to suit different ages or having pairs face each other to play.

You can just picture the children’s eyes sparkling with excitement!
