I never dreamed the day would come when I'd have a karaoke experience on note. [Participation in Project]

Wow~~~ surprisingly, I received a karaoke baton from Maki-chan, who I interact with through comments and such on note!!

Maki-chan is a Shinto priest who writes articles to encourage moms who are raising children. I get a lot of power from her too, so please take a look.

Project details and organizers

The organizers of this project are these people. Thank you for letting me participate ^^

Mieharu-san, Chainner-san. Nice to meet you. I look forward to working with you!

Chiaki Kanda's Playlist

Although I rarely have the chance to go to karaoke while raising children, I will introduce a playlist of songs that I have certified as my cheering songs for parenting.

① Baby Baby / YUKI

First of all, I am a huge fan of YUKI-chan, and the first CD I ever bought and the first concert ticket I bought with my own part-time job money were YUKI-chan's. I'm the type who wants to go to a tour at least twice.

Among them, "Baby Baby" is my parenting cheering song, and I wrote a note about it two years ago. It has been my theme song for parenting since then.

There are lyrics like this in the song.

No matter how sad or unbearable things are, as long as you (my children, to me) are here, this world and I are not so bad.

That is how I feel while raising my children.

② Boyoyon Koushinkyoku / Okaasan to Issho

I don't think there's any mom raising children who doesn't like this song, but what do you think??? Is it a bit old???
Donsuka Panpan Oendan is newer, right. It seems like there are many people on that side. Donsuka Panpan Oendan is also good. I like it.

But, after all, "Boyoyon Koushinkyoku" is top-class among Okaasan to Issho songs that I love!!! I should be able to dance it perfectly... (I could when I was active)
I loved it so much that when I was a childcare worker, I used it as the entrance and exit music for sports festivals. By the way, many childcare workers love this song too.

Listening to this song makes me feel energized.

Children, jump high into the sky just like in the Boyoyon March!!

3. Paprika / Foorin

Paprika is a song that formed the foundation of my childcare and parenting, and it's still a song I love.

When it was popular, I was the homeroom teacher for a class of 0-year-olds. No matter how you look at it, the choreography for Paprika isn't something children who have only just learned to walk can do.

That's why I didn't incorporate Paprika into my childcare.

However, it was incredibly popular, and all the children at the nursery school loved Paprika. Because they loved it so much, I tried incorporating it sometimes, and they became able to do several of the dance moves I thought 0-year-olds couldn't do.

I learned that positive feelings like "liking" something or having "fun" can easily overcome barriers like age. It's an important song that taught me that.

So, that was my playlist.

It's mostly songs from quite a while ago, and I'm feeling like I haven't been listening to much music lately (lol).

As for the next baton, I'm passing it to...

I'd love to know your favorite songs too, so I'd like to pass the baton along. I want to know the favorite songs of moms who are currently raising children, so I'm passing it to my mom friends on note!

The first person is Ayameshi-san♡, who I've had a long relationship with through the comment section on note.

She's the person who inspired me to start note and is a mom to a two-and-a-half-year-old girl. Her writing, which is so easy to read, is very charming, and she has such a high sensitivity to everyday realizations that I look forward to reading her posts every day. I love her!

The second person is a senior working mom who loves to travel, Banana-san ♡

I can't count how many times Banana-san's articles have helped me when traveling with my kids... A mom of two who loves to travel! I love her!

I figured she probably listens to music during travel time—I wondered what kind of songs she likes, so I passed the baton to her!

Please, do tell me the favorite songs of these two people I adore so much!

That said, this is a sudden request, so if it's difficult, it seems it's okay to pass it back to Mieharu-san or Chainner-san.

If you'd like, please do share your favorite songs ♡ I'd be happy if you could tell me in the comments section too!

I'm the type who always watches these kinds of projects from afar thinking, 'That looks fun,' but rarely takes the step to participate. Trying it out was super fun!

I really love the feeling of the world connecting through 'likes' on note.

May tomorrow be a good day for you too.
