Sesame Workshop description
Gina is reading a book to her adopted son, Marco, about the Spanish names for animals. Rosita asks what she is doing and Gina explains that since Marco was born in Guatemala, where people speak Spanish, she would like him to learn Spanish too. Rosita explains that there is so much more to learn and dashes off to get her guitar. She plays a little “guitarrra” for them and shows them more instruments – claves, maracas, guiro and a bongo – and sings a song about “musica.” Rosita then tells Gina about “baile” which is the Spanish word for dance. Rosita dances the tango, merengue and conga, and sings a fun song about other kinds of Spanish dances. Next, Rosita tells Gina and Marco all about different “comidas” which is the Spanish word for food, and Latin chefs deliver a delicious feast for them to enjoy. Rosita says that with musica, baile and comida there’s one thing you have to do – have a fiesta with your amigos!
