Los pollitos dicen
The Little Chickens
Canción infantil
Children's Song
(Spanish)
(English)
Los pollitos dicen pío, pío, pío
cuando tienen hambre
cuando tienen frío.
La gallina busca el maíz y el trigo
les da la comida y les presta abrigo.
Bajo de sus alas, acurrucaditos
¡duermen los pollitos
hasta el otro día!
The little chicks say pio pio pio
When they are hungry
And when they are cold.
The mother hen looks for corn and wheat.
She gives them food and grants them shelter.
Under mama's wings, huddling up,
Sleep the little chicks
Until the next day!!!!!!
Game Instructions
Heleen de Vaan was kind enough to send me the following hand gestures that go with this song...
"Cuando tienen hambre" - rub your belly
"Cuando tienen frío" - cross your arms and shiver as if you feel cold
"La gallina busca el maíz y el trigo"- move your head up and down, like a pecking chicken
"Les da la comida" - open your hand and put it forward
"Y les presta abrigo" - put your arms around yourself
"Bajo de sus alas, acurrucaditos" - put your arms around the one who's next to you
"Duermen los pollitos" - put your face into your hands and close your eyes.
Many thanks to Heleen for providing us with all of this information!
