[|¿Dónde están las llaves?] - Good for future tense, plus the verb IR in most tenses

media type="youtube" key="Kjmk6OqVHWA?rel=0" height="349" width="425"

El reino al revés media type="youtube" key="KlMQZsifcio?rel=0" width="420" height="315"

[|Mi lindo globito] media type="youtube" key="L3_-LEB9QgU?rel=0" height="349" width="425" media type="youtube" key="5kXTde6b9sQ?rel=0" height="349" width="425"

[|El patio de mi casa] media type="youtube" key="usqDjuhXnTk?rel=0" height="349" width="425"

[|El pollito pío] media type="custom" key="25316344" - Very nicely designed video goes through the sounds that different farm animals make. Video is repetitive, shows text for each sound, does end with the little chick getting flattened by a tractor on the farm. The ending would be funny for upper elementary students, but might be upsetting to preschool/lower elementary students.

[|Los pollitos dicen] media type="youtube" key="GTF9bw-Cu28?rel=0" height="349" width="425"

[|Que llueva] - Beautiful, contemporary version of the nursery rhyme by Ea! (One image at 1:05 is not suitable for use in classrooms)

media type="youtube" key="xqZm9MqBEfU?rel=0" height="349" width="425" Que llueva - Less compelling, but classroom safe media type="youtube" key="Z6Bu82liVHw?rel=0" height="349" width="425" (Less compelling, but classroom safe)

[|Tres pecesitos]

media type="youtube" key="p1XX-pGclaU?rel=0" height="349" width="425"

[|Los elefantes] - Animated, karaoke style sheet music with audio file (great for developing literacy skills)

[|Un elefante se balanceaba] - Picture worksheet in which each word of the song is illustrated in its own square

[|Yo tenía diez perritos] - Images make the video very comprehensible, but some may be upsetting to young children media type="youtube" key="ddEKQrFWhiY?rel=0" height="349" width="425" media type="youtube" key="qLc1vMIiAKw?rel=0" height="349" width="425" ( [|Karaoke version] )
