🎵 Songs of the Week

Hagamos una rueda y vamos a jugar

Si comes saludable tus huesos crecerán

Con esta cancioncita tú aprenderás

Como tú estás creciendo...aquí en Sff!

Primero un bebecito pequeño tú serás

Después un niño sano y fuerte crecerás

cuando tú seas joven al college tú irás y

cuando seas adulto tu familia tendrás..,

después serás anciano y abuelito te dirán

📚 Poems

Mi carita redondita

Tiene ojos y nariz

Y también una boquita

Para hablar y sonreir

Con los ojos veo todo

Con la nariz hago achiiis

Y con la boca yo como palomitas de maíz.

📚 Riddle

Dos ojitos para mirar

Dos orejitas para escuchar

Una naricita para oler

Y una boquita que les gusta comer.

Saco mi manito

La hago bailar

La cierro la abro

La vuelvo a guardar

Saco otra manito

a hago bailar

la cierro la abro

la vuelvo a guardar.

🎵 Songs of the Week

Las partes de mi cuerpo hoy yo voy a cantar,

Bailando con mis amigos,

Cada parte moverás.

Empiezo con mis bracitos

Con los que puedo abrazar, con mucho amor a papito

Y luego a mi mama.

Moviendo la cabeza yo digo sí o no.

Moviendo mi colita bailando yo estoy.

Ya todos preparados pues vamos aprender:

Las partes del cuerpo que tú vas a mover. (bis)

Piernas y cabeza.

Pies, brazos, cuello y cadera.

Hombros, manos y rodillas.

Pies, brazos y piernas. (bis)
