Mariposas CDs

Cha, cha, cha! is a compilation of some favorite songs that we sing in our Mariposas Spanish School classroom for children ages 0 to 6. Latin rhythms by local Austin musicians are added to experience the heart of the culture. Playful sounds subtly pop in for deeper learning and understanding.

A Celebrar con Mariposas (Ages 5 to 10) has some of our students’ favorite songs with traditional latin rhythms. They are all catchy, easy to learn songs that teach Spanish basics to children ages 6 to 10. Included in the album are frequently requested songs such as the birthday and piñata song.
