Abstract

Hygiene and health are two things that are closely related. As a proverb that is often heard “Kebersihan adalah pangkal kesehatan”. Now, life during the COVID-19 pandemic, we are encouraged to keep the hygiene and health at least start from ourselves. Japanese children’s folk song 童謡 is a medium that is used by the researcher to raise awareness in maintaining hygiene as the basis of health from an early age. The lyrics of the Japanese children’s folk song 童 謡 are presented in the form of playing sounds which emphasize the news to be conveyed to children to be of concern. Accompanied by the rhythm of Japanese children’s folk singing 童 謡 can encourage children to imitate these sounds, and even encourage children to imitate or perform movements that are as messages. Finally, it can arouse awareness and attitude to maintain hygiene as the base of health from an early age.
