[Dance to Popular Songs!] Recommended Dance Tracks for Elementary School Kids (41–50)
Where the Wind GoesAdo
A song I’d love dance beginners to try is Ado’s “Where the Wind Blows.” It was used as the ending theme for the film ONE PIECE FILM RED and was produced by Motohiro Hata.
The sound has a grand, expansive feel, making it perfect for dances that incorporate dynamic movements.
The key is to match the slow tempo by stretching your arms and legs wide.
With lyrics filled with hope and courage, it’s a dance number that unfolds with musical-like movements.
It’s also great for livening up time at home or events like school sports days.
Cinderella GirlKing&Prince
A popular song even at daycare centers and kindergartens, King & Prince’s “Cinderella Girl.” With its sparkling, prince-like members and the song itself, many people—not just Johnny’s fans—have probably thought, “So cool!” “So wonderful!” It’s a piece we’d love elementary school boys to dance to! As long as they master the chorus choreography, the rest can be easily arranged with simpler moves!
TTTwice
Released in 2016, the dance that recreated the crying emoji became a huge trend.
K-pop idol dances are high-quality and seem difficult, but they have lots of cute poses and moves, so they’re super popular with girls! Let’s match our footwork and hand movements perfectly, practice a lot, and nail it together.
The music video is incredibly cute, so you can boost your mood while you practice!
Otherworldly Mixed Grand Ball (feat. Ghosts)Hoshino Gen
Let’s show off a cute dance that incorporates ghost-like movements! The choreography is themed after Gen Hoshino’s 2022 release, “Isekai Kongo Dai Butokai.” The key is to move your hands and feet big in time with the rhythmic music.
Since the main moves have the ghosts swaying gently, even kids who aren’t confident dancers can give it a try! Enjoy walking energetically and adding movements that match the lyrics.
It’s a dance number that can be enjoyed by small to large groups.
ClickME:I
Like a light that illuminates the future, ME:I’s debut song shines.
With an uplifting message, it sings about the importance of moving forward together into what lies ahead.
Born from a survival audition program, the group’s impeccably synchronized dancing is especially captivating.
Digitally released in March 2024, it became a massive hit, surpassing 2.6 million streams in about 21 hours! It carries a message that signals a fresh start and gives listeners a gentle push forward.
The energetic vibe also makes it perfect for sports days and school events.
Why not dance together and take a step toward a bright future?
Come On A My HouseHey! Say! JUMP
Many of you probably know it as the jingle from the “Vermont Curry” commercial.
It’s a song by Hey! Say! JUMP, a popular idol group from Johnny’s.
It was released in 2013 as their 10th single.
This heart-fluttering love song expresses single-minded feelings for someone special, with a very pop sound.
It’s a perfect dance number for having fun and moving along.
The vibe might suit the outdoors more than indoors.
Feel the music with your whole body!
ChopstickNiziU
The charm of NiziU’s songs is that they’re poppy, cute, and make everyone want to copy them! In their track “Chopstick,” the “chopsticks dance” that matches the title drew a lot of attention.
The song was included on their 2021 album “U” and was used in a SoftBank commercial.
Its melody incorporates “The Celebrated Chop Waltz” by British composer Euphemia Allen, giving the track a big impact on its own! If dancing the whole thing is tough, start with the chorus’s “chopsticks dance” first!
