TEGASONG - "Guu-Choki-Paa de Nani Tsukurou" (What Shall We Make with Rock, Scissors, and Paper?) is a classic, immensely popular hand-play song for children, performed by Satoko Yamano—a singer renowned for her work on family songs and anime theme songs. Set to the melody of the French folk song "Frère Jacques," the song involves using both hands to combine the "rock," "scissors," and "paper" hand shapes to create various figures. It is frequently featured as a lead track on albums of children's songs and play-along tunes released by labels such as Nippon Columbia (e.g., The Best: Play-Along Songs — Guu-Choki-Paa de Nani Tsukurou).
