When I Go To Peña's House
Canción infantil
Nursery Rhyme
(Spanish)
(English)
Cuando voy a casa de Peña,
Con la patita le hago la seña,
Cuando voy a casa de Juan,
Con la patita le toco el zaguán*.
When I go to Peña's house,
With my little leg I make a sign,
When I go to John's house,
With my little leg I touch the hallway.
Notes
*Alternate line: "Con la patita le abro el zaguán" (With my little leg, I open his hallway) or "Con la manita le abro el zaguán" (With my little hand, I open his hallway).
Game Instructions
Hold the baby lying in your arms, his back leaning against you, move the baby's legs as if walking, wave one leg on "le hago la seña", resume "walking" and stomp gently on "le toco el zaguán". If you choose the 1st alternate ending, you can kick instead.
