Anpanman is a character hugely popular with toddlers.

It’s so widespread that there might not be a child who doesn’t know him.

Surely today’s elementary school kids also grew up watching the anime “Let’s Go! Anpanman” when they were little.

So how about singing an Anpanman song for the first time in a while? Our recommendation is “Anpanman Taisou.” It’s one of the anime’s ending themes.

As a song from a toddler-oriented anime, it’s naturally easy to sing, and its gentle, encouraging lyrics still resonate in your heart even now that you’re older.

It also drew attention when Keina Suda released a self-cover.

Major debut song “Peter Pan” by Yuuri, who gained immense popularity through his activity on social media.

Released as a digital single in August 2020 and included on the album “Ichi,” it’s an upbeat tune.

The lyrics, which convey a strong resolve to chase one’s dreams, and the driving rock sound come together as an uplifting anthem.

Since April 2021, it has also been used in corporate commercials for DIP Corporation, so many of you have likely heard it at least once.

Its warm, mid-tempo melody makes it great for karaoke beginners.

Since the vocal parts are divided between male and female, kids can have fun assigning roles and singing together.

It’s a cute love song that both children and adults can enjoy, and it can even spark conversations about romance and bring everyone closer during family karaoke outings.

The song I’d like children who will soar into the future to sing at karaoke is “Happiness.” It was released in 2007 by Arashi, a beloved national idol group, and it’s cherished by people of all ages.

The fresh sound, starting with a lively guitar intro, is particularly memorable.

The lyrics, which convey the importance of living positively, really resonate.

The upbeat rhythm is sure to lift the kids’ spirits.

If you’re good at dancing, it’s also recommended to dance along with the children’s singing.
