This giveaway is now closed. Thanks to all who entered! The winners (numbers chosen using random.org) are Iveth, Yogamama, Jessica, Patricia Sinay and Silvia Zaragoza. Patricia and Silvia, please contact me at playground . spanish @ gmail . com so I can send you the CD. ¡Muchisimas gracias a todos por leer Spanish Playground!
How about a great CD of Spanish songs for children as a gift this holiday season? Music with Sara is generously giving away 5 copies of her CD Canciones en Español to Spanish Playground readers.
I love using Sara’s music with Spanish language learners. In addition to teaching kids lots of Spanish, many of the songs are culturally relevant. For example, on this CD you will find the classic song La Llorona and also the musical version of the traditional rhyme El burro. Most important, Sara’s songs are fun to sing. Kids love El burro! They do not even realize they are practicing their vowels.
If you are not one of the lucky winners, or if you do not want to wait to find out, you can order or download the CD and individual songs here. Be sure to listen to Mi cuerpo; it is one of my preschoolers’ favorites!
You can learn more about Sara’s music on her website and follow Music with Sara on Facebook. I wrote about another of Sara’s CDs here: Spanish Songs for Kids – Más Canciones en Español by Music with Sara
To enter the giveaway:
Tell us what one of your favorite songs to sing in Spanish is. It does not have to be a children’s song. Leave your answer in the comments. You can enter on the Spanish Playground Facebook page too, for a double entry, but please be sure I can message you there if you win. The giveaway will run through midnight (central), Sunday Dec. 16th. I will announce the winners on Monday, Dec. 17th.
¡Muchísimas gracias a Sara por compartir su música!
Currently my 5 y/o enjoys singing “Mi Hombre de Nieve” and my 2 y/o enjoys “Estrallita Donde Esta”!
Me encanta la canción “De colores”
LOS POLLITOS is my favorite song
Ya llego la navidad
‘Que linda la manito que tiene mi bebe’ y la cancion que dice “Tortillitas para mama, tortillitas para papa”
Para bailar la Bamba
Yo tengo una casita que es así y así y por la chimenea sale el humo así así y así y cuando quiero entrar, golpeo así y así. Me limpio los zapatos así así y así
El Changomarango y El burrito sabanero!
I enjoy singing “Mi Burrito Enfermo”
Tantas cancioness! We love all the canciones de Navidad: tamborilero, burrito sabanero, a la nanita nana.
Me gusta cantar “5 Monitos” con mis estudiantes.
Nuestra favorita ahorita es Barquita de Papel
LOVE Mi cuerpo. My Kinder and First Graders beg to sing it!!
My favorite one is called “el payaso plin plin”
We love the one that goes “Un elefante se culumpeaba sobre la tela de una araña”
Probably because it was one of the very first songs my children learnt at Spanish nursery and they loved doing the actions to it …
“Tengo un mano, lo hago bailar, lo subo, lo bajo, lo pongo en su lugar. Tengo otro mano … etc ending with “ya no tengo manos, no se donde estan. Donde estan los manos … aquiiiiiiii” lots of little ones then frantically wave their hands in the air
Then they do the same with their feet …
Tengo un pie … Tengo otro pie
Oh the memories
Mi canción favorita es “para tu amor” de Juanes he dedicated that song to his daughter and I love his music
Our babies in our Spanish music class love singing ‘el auto de papá’ with little steering wheels!
Lisa, What a great version! I always have ended that song with “Saco las dos manitas, las hago bailar. Las subo, las bajo y las vuelvo a guardar.” My preschoolers would love losing their hands!
I love to sing ¡Vengan ya! and Chu chua with my kids at school!
Barco chiquito
Sol, solecito
Tambien me gusta la cancion “Penelope” . No es una cancion infantil, pero es muy hermosa.
Feliz Navidad para todos!!!!
My favorite is La Tía Monica – the kids love the “oo la la” part!
My students really enjoy “Debajo de un botón,” “Tengo una familia grande,” and “Cuando Juanito baila.”
Mi burrito sabanero, of course!
“Que dicen los animales” by Hap Palmer right now! My five year old and my two year old love his bilingual album!
I love “Cielito Lindo”. We sang it together as a couple and as a lullaby to our baby when she was little. I liked it even before I knew all the words to it.
I love to sing “Eres tu”. It was the first pop Spanish song that I learned when I spent my junior year in Sevilla years ago.
I love that one too…and we are so dating ourselves by admitting it!
A mis estudiantes, les encantan “Vengan a ver mi granja”
Yo tengo una casita! My students loved this last year. Time to do it with my kids.
I love El burrito sabanero or El burrito de Belen
I love to sing karaoke in Spanish. My favorite is “almuada” (pepe Aguilar version)
My early elementary students love “mi cuerpo” and “que tiempo hace hoy”. My older kids love the months of the year macarena, feliz navidad, and noche de paz! I love them all!
Me gusta mucho “El Burrito de Belen” y “El Payaso Baila”
my favorite is Hola Amigos
We got our copy and we LOVE LOVE LOVE it! We’ve been listening to it non-stop everytime we’re in the car for the last week. Even Papi knows all the words now. We’ll definitely be looking for more Music with Sara!
