Posted by: | 6 Comments

I definitely run the risk of sounding naive, BUT I really had no idea how to sing “Old MacDonald had a Farm” in Spanish.  My girl’s been singing it a lot lately and I really wanted to teach her the Spanish version (even though really the only part she sings for now is “E-I-E-I-O”).  I found it on You Tube, of course.

Video of the Week::Caillou

Posted by: | 4 Comments

My daughter’s current obsession is Caillou, a Canadian children’s television show based on the books by Christine L’Heureux and illustrator Hélène Desputeaux.  Caillou is a bald-headed, four-year old who loves exploring his world. Caillou is originally broadcast in French, but the Spanish versions can easily be found on YouTube.  PBS airs the English versions in the US. This is one of my girl’s favorite episodes: Caillou y el Gran Tobogán httpvh://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S6p-fWsFFso&feature=PlayList&p=7648EDE2A7F93BB2&playnext=1&playnext_from=PL&index=11 Remember to head over to our new sister site-SpanglishBabyFinds-forRead More ...

This song is called “Ricas Frutas” and features Mexcian signer Aleks Syntek along with Pancho, Abelardo, and Lola from Plaza Sésamo. ¡Qué lo disfruten! PlazaRead More ...

Not sure if my discovery is going to come as news to you, but I definitely had a cathartic moment when I discovered Aprende con Sesame on iTunes. One of my best tricks for long car rides is to hand over my iPod to Camila so she can be entertained and mami can have some quiet time to attempt to put some thoughts together, or to at least watch the road ahead of me! The challenge I’ve had is findingRead More ...

What a nostalgic trip down memory lane with Topo Gigio!  How many of you remember watching him as a kid?  Surely if you grew up in Latin America, Italy, the US, Japan or any of the many countries where Topo Gigio was adored you’ve at one point been fascinated by this little mouse. We can thank the Italians for creating such a lovable character more than four decades ago.  Some countries still air his shows, but you can for sureRead More ...
