Train your Child’s Bilingualism with Spanish Exercise Routine (Part 2)

 

Did you know more than 500 million people in the world speak Spanish as their first language? According to U.S. Census Bureau, Hispanics make around 54 million people in the United States, which makes around approximately 17% of the U.S. total population. This makes learning Spanish relatively more important than learning any other language. In this post, we will continue with our Spanish learning with another song that you can use for regular workout routine in your nearest commercial playground.

¡B-I-N-G-O!
¡B-I-N-G-O!
¡B-I-N-G-O! y Bingo era su nombre.

Había una vez un perro
y Bingo era su nombre,
¡"Aplauso"-I-N-G-O!
¡"Aplauso"-I-N-G-O!
¡"Aplauso"-I-N-G-O!

(Encourage kids to applaud and twist all the way, and back to normal position)

y Bingo era su nombre,
¡"Aplauso"-"Aplauso"-N-G-O!
¡"Aplauso"-"Aplauso"-N-G-O!
¡"Aplauso"-"Aplauso"-N-G-O!
y Bingo era su nombre.

(Encourage kids to clap and bend all the way down and get back up as quick as possible. Then clap, kick out left leg, and kick out the right leg.)

Train your Child’s Bilingualism while Getting Physically Fit (Part 1)

We are dwelling in an era where “good enough” is not good enough. We need to be more competitive in order to stay ahead. Our children face a massive challenge to make themselves stand out among the highly scholarly crowd. If you are in America, it is crucial that you at least understand Spanish. In this post, we will highlight how you can help your child’s bilingualism (and yours) while getting the regular dose of physical activity in a commercial playground.

Counting in Spanish

This exercise is simple. Perform a simple warm up with your kids, but instead of counting in English
Uno (oo-no), Dos (dose), Tres (trace) (move to the left)
Cuatro (kwat-ro), Cinco (sink-o), Seis (saze) (move to the right)
Siete (see-yet-eh), Ocho (och-o), Nueve (new-eh-veh) (do the twist)
Diez (dee-ace) , once (ohn-say), doce (dos-say) (clap your hands and jump)
You can gradually add the new numbers. The list of 20-100 counting in Spanish in given below:

20 veinte	30 treinta	40 cuarenta	50 cincuenta
veinte uno	treinta y uno	cuarenta y uno	cincuenta y uno
veinte dos	treinta y dos	cuarenta y dos	cincuenta y dos
veinte tres	treinta y tres	cuarenta y tres	cincuenta y tres
veinte cuatro	treinta y cuatro	cuarenta y cuatro	cincuenta y cuatro
veinte cinco	treinta y cinco	cuarenta y cinco	cincuenta y cinco
veinte seis	treinta y seis	cuarenta y seis	cincuenta y seis
veinte siete	treinta y siete	cuarenta y siete	cincuenta y siete
veinte ocho	treinta y ocho	cuarenta y ocho	cincuenta y ocho
veinte nueve	treinta y nueve	cuarenta y nueve	cincuenta y nueve

Introduce new numbers to children as they play on their outdoor playground equipment, or engage in any other physical activity.

60 sesenta	70 setenta	80 ochenta	90 noventa
sesenta y uno	setenta y uno	ochenta y uno	noventa y uno
sesenta y dos	setenta y dos	ochenta y dos	noventa y dos
sesenta y tres	setenta y tres	ochenta y tres	noventa y tres
sesenta y cuatro	setenta y cuatro	ochenta y cuatro	noventa y cuatro
sesenta y cinco	setenta y cinco	ochenta y cinco	noventa y cinco
sesenta y seis	setenta y seis	ochenta y seis	noventa y seis
sesenta y siete	setenta y siete	ochenta y siete	noventa y siete
sesenta y ocho	setenta y ocho	ochenta y ocho	noventa y ocho
sesenta y nueve	setenta y nueve	ochenta y nueve	noventa y nueve
