The seasons of the year.


The four seasons — winter, spring, summer, autumn — can vary significantly in characteristics, and can prompt changes in the world around them.



We work the seasons of the year at a theater where children from the E. I. El Espinillo came to see. This is the scenario, and here there are some songs:


Winter Song
Spring Song
Summer Song
Autumn Song

Here a gift that made us children.

Storytelling.

The Very Hungry Caterpillar uses distinctive collage illustrations, 'eaten' holes in the pages and simple text with educational themes – counting, the days of the week, types of food, and a butterfly's life stages.

The Three Little Pigs

It is a fable/fairy tale featuring anthropomorphic pigs who build three houses of different materials. A big bad wolf is able to blow down the first two pigs' houses, made of straw and wood respectively, but is unable to destroy the third pig's house, made of bricks.

The Three Little Pigs was included in The Nursery Rhymes of England (London and New York, c.1886), by James Orchard Halliwell-Phillipps. The story in its arguably best-known form appeared in English Fairy Tales by Joseph Jacobs, first published in 1890 and crediting Halliwell as his source.The story begins with the title characters being sent out into the world by their mother, to "seek out their fortune". The first little pig builds a house ofstraw, but a wolf blows it down and eats him. The second pig builds a house of furze sticks, which the wolf also blows down and eats him. Each exchange between wolf and pig features ringing proverbial phrases, namely:

"Little pig, little fatty, let me come in.."
"No, no, not by the hair on my chinny chin chin."
"Then I'll huff, and I'll puff, and I'll blow your house in.
