We hope you enjoyed the sample video snippet of our craft activity!
Each week we will feature a new craft video and Spanish lesson inspired by the songs in the collection. Watch the video in Spanish for a full immersion experience. Use the ideas in the video to spark ideas for your own creations. Each video has a bilingual written summary to help introduce older learners (5 and up) to the new vocabulary.
Elan y Micaiah están en casa, en su cocina. Van a hacer maracas. Usan frascos y botellas. Les ponen frijoles adentro. Pegan los palitos y las tapas con pegamento. Decoran con papel, pintura, y cinta de colores. ¡Qué bonitas las maracas de Elan y su hija Micaiah!
Elan and Micaiah are at home, in their kitchen. They are going to make maracas. They use containers and bottles. They secure the sticks and lids with glue. They decorate with paper, paint and colored tape. How pretty the maracas Elan and her daughter Micaiah made!
Try to spot the key words in the video (the ones in red). See if you can read the words and figure out their meaning using clues from what you see and hear in the video.
Make your own maracas like Elan and Micaiah with materials you can find around the house.
