Panda, rabbit, koalaSakata Osamu, Kanzaki Yūko9rank/position

How about “Panda, Bunny, Koala,” a hand-play song that became widely popular thanks to NHK’s educational program Okaasan to Issho? The song is known for having lyrics by Hiroo Takada, and it’s fun because you imitate the movements of the panda, bunny, and koala that appear in the lyrics.

Its appeal also lies in the built-in variety and game-like elements, such as the tempo gradually getting faster.

You might enjoy it even more if you add brief explanations between sections of the song—for example, “Let’s line them up and try it.”

Ho! Ho! Ho!Sakata Osamu, Kanzaki Yūko10rank/position

This is a classic song that has been covered every time the male and female lead singers change, and it has continued to be sung on the program.

According to composer Wakako Fukuda, who passed away suddenly in 2008, this song is often used for auditions for the female lead singer.

In other words, it’s like a gateway piece for the role.

It’s clearly cherished very much.
