We have been singing this Mexican song in class ‘Marie Isabel’, perfect for the summer.
The Spanish lyrics mean “Grab your hat and put it on. Go to the beach where the sun is hot”.
This week the children coloured in pictures to go with this song. They did a great job, don’t you think?
This week the parent’s homework is to make up their own verses to the song, singing about what they do with their children. I can’t wait to hear them next week.
I also found a retro version of this song on YouTube. A 1960s recording of this traditional song. Have a look.
Makes me want to go to the beach!
