[Childcare] Songs we want 6-year-old kindergarten seniors to sing! Perfect songs for recitals and graduation ceremonies.

9 years of experience as a nursery school teacherRisa Shibata
I am an active nursery school teacher with 9 years of experience. After graduating from university, I worked at a daycare center. The time I spent happily with children—playing piano, singing songs, and doing finger-play—are priceless memories to me. Currently, while raising three children of my own, I work at an after-school day service, engaging with children and providing individualized developmental support. Drawing on my diverse experiences as a childcare worker and as a mother, I hope to express and convey my thoughts through writing.
Nursery Teacher Mom WriterMoe Tsukada
After working for five years at an after-school childcare club and three years at a nursery school, I began working as a freelance writer. I’m a mother of two children. Inspired by playing the flute in the school wind ensemble in elementary school, I joined a jazz club at university. I’ve also incorporated ukulele and piano performance into childcare. Playing, laughing, feeling sad, feeling frustrated—through all kinds of experiences, I want children to grow.

The time when children graduate from nursery school or kindergarten.

It’s a major milestone for both the children and the teachers.

The children have grown so much, and their ability to express themselves through song has surely become richer.

Here, we’ve gathered songs we’d love for six-year-olds to sing.

They’re perfect for performances like recitals and graduation ceremonies, so if you’re a teacher unsure about song selection, please use this as a reference.

Let’s fill the venue with the children’s wonderful singing voices and make it a presentation where teachers and parents can join together in wishing for the children’s bright and joyful future.

Album of Memories

There is a graduation song beloved by many called “Omoide no Album” (Memory Album).

The lyrics were written by Toshi Masuko and the music was composed by Tetsumaro Honda.

After it was featured on NHK’s music program “Minna no Uta,” word of mouth spread, and it began to be sung at many kindergarten and nursery school graduation ceremonies.

The song’s lyrics look back on the events of a year spent in kindergarten or nursery school, tracing the journey up to graduation.

Singing it brings back past memories and is likely to move you to tears.

In conclusion

I introduced some recommended songs for six-year-olds.

At recitals and graduation ceremonies, the children show the culmination of their time at the preschool.

Looking back on how lively they’ve been and the dear friends they’ve made, I’m sure there are countless irreplaceable memories.

I hope they carry those memories in their hearts and continue to live each day with lots of energy.
