Activities for Mi Casa, My House
Talk with your children about what they do at their house. Do they sing, work, play, etc.? Use their experiences and sing about them in the song. For example, a child might say that they eat at their house. Then you can sing “at my house, everyone is eating”.

This song is wonderful for role playing. Children can take the parts of the various family members and act out the appropriate actions.This song emphasizes the family. Take out a photo album and look at pictures of the members of your family. Talk about them with your children and practice using Spanish words for the various family members.
