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

🎵 Songs of the Week - Las Partes del Cuerpo

Las partes de mi cuerpo , hoy yo voy a cantar

Bailando con mis amigos

Cada parte moverás

Empiezo con mis brazitos

Con los que puedo abrazar

Con mucho amor a papito

Y luego a mi mamá

Moviendo la cabeza yo digo si o no

Moviendo mi colita bailando yo estoy

Ya todos preparados pues vamos aprender

Las partes del cuerpo que tu vas a mover

Piernas y cabeza

Pies brazos y cadera

Hombros manos y rodillas

Pies brazos y piernas.

📚 Poems, Riddles and Tongue Twisters

Poem 1

Tengo dos ojos

una nariz

y también una boquita

Para comer y sonreír.

Con los ojos veo todo

Con la nariz hago achis

Y con la boca yo como

Palomitas de maíz.

Riddle 1 - Las Piernas

Con ellas podemos correr

Podemos saltar

Podemos caminar

¿Sabes quienes serán?

Riddle 2 - Los Ojos

En la cara tengo dos

Cuando los abro todo veo y

Cuando los cierro solo duermo.
