Tsuyu (Rainy Season) - Jun through July


In Japan, from June untill the middle of July, there is rainy season, which is called Tsuyu. There are no holidays or events in June, just the Rainy Season! Because of this, many Japanese do NOT like June and are bored because they cannot do anything outside.

Here are very famous, easy and funny songs which are related with this season. They are called "Katatsumuri (Snail)" and "Amefuri (Raining)." Please hear and practice them!
