What Parents Need to Know
About Fiesta Songs!
Parents need to know that language lessons don't get much better than this. Each track begins with narration in Spanish and English, and then every song is sung in both Spanish and English. Equally important are the musical (and cultural) lessons inherent in every track. Other lessons include numbers (ascending and descending), dynamics (loud and soft), and expressing oneself.

Families Can Talk About
- Families can talk about the rhythms, instruments, and arrangements of the songs and what insight they provide into music from the many different Spanish-speaking cultures. They can also find and discuss some of the messages in the songs, such as the value of friendship.
