Moku-moku fuyu—nHanada Yuuichirou, Ono Atsuko36rank/position
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.
A gentle songHanada Yuuichirou, Ono Atsuko37rank/position
In this song, “gentle songs” refers to encounters that make you feel gentle, or kind words from friends.
It teaches us something very important: if everyone experiences kindness, the whole world will be filled with gentle songs.
Lina the OcarinaHanada Yuuichirou, Ono Atsuko38rank/position
Lina is a slightly quirky bird shaped a bit like an ocarina who loves to sing.
In the intro, you can hear a melody played on the ocarina.
It’s a song about Lina joyfully singing as she flies through the sky—just listening to it will lift your spirits.
Devil, Be Shocked, Do Your Best!Hanada Yuuichirou, Ono Atsuko39rank/position
In this song, the singing big brother and big sister actually turn into devils and sing.
It gives off a “Is a scary song about to start?” vibe, but it’s a song about a hardworking Tasmanian devil.
People are scared because of its cries, but it’s a cute devil that loves napping during the day and patrols at night.
Please don’t be afraid of it.
WishHanada Yuuichirou, Ono Atsuko40rank/position
If just one of your wishes could come true…
you’d want to think like this song does, wouldn’t you? Instead of a wish that makes only yourself happy, the lyrics say, “May everyone’s wishes come true,” which is so lovely.
The upbeat tune itself lifts your spirits from the bottom of your heart! It may be a children’s song, but adults like parents will surely feel energized by it too.
When you’re weighed down by worries or anxieties, this song might just help you.

What kind of bread is it, though?!Hanada Yuuichirou, Ono Atsuko41rank/position
The Monthly Song for October 2020, “Even If It’s Bread, Which Bread Am I?” It’s a song whose lyrics are made up of kids’ favorite riddles, and you sing your answers to questions like, “Even if it’s bread, which bread that’s ○○ is it?” Children who like riddles will enjoy it, and for kids who don’t know riddles yet, it’s a great chance to try them out.
There’s a thinking time, so it really livens up if you add dancing or clap along together.
After the thinking time, let’s all shout out the answer!
