6 vídeos y letras de canciones en inglés para niños

Una de las fórmulas imprescindibles para que los niños se familiaricen con un nuevo idioma son las canciones. Lo que se aprende cantando raramente se olvida. Por más que los niños no pronuncien perfectamente cada palabra, la música les ayuda a asimilar la fonética.

Buscando la letra de Humpty Dumpty (el huevito que se cae de la pared) a pedido de mi hija mayor me he encontrado algunos vídeos de canciones infantiles en inglés para niños que quiero compartir con vosotros para que les pongáis y cantéis con vuestros hijos.

Os dejo a continuación con una selección de 6 canciones clásicas en inglés para niños. He colgado el vídeo y la letra de la canción para refrescarles la memoria. ¡Que las disfrutéis!
