Hablamos Espanol

I've been teaching R&R Spanish for awhile now. I started it more frequently after they dropped the signing they were doing. They actually know lots of words in Spanish and use them frequently. I think it's hilarious to hear their little voices saying words in another language. Here's a few of our favorites and the translations:
  • Abra or Abre = Open-- they both say "abio"
  • Adios= Goodbye--Ree says "ah-eeos", Ry says "adi-dos"
  • Salta=Jump--they both can say salta
  • Corre=Run--they both say "coway"
  • Hola=Hello--Ry says "Ola", Ree says "ah-lo"
  • Cocodrilo=Crocodile--Ry says "cocodilo" w/o the "r"
  • Vamos or Vamanos=Let's go--Ree says "Bamos" as in "Bamos WyWy, Bamos". She's a bossy little minx.
This is just a highlight and I'm working on the Espanol everyday, so I'm sure I'll have some new words/phrases soon to share. It's amazing to watch their little brains growing.
