Los niños se divierten mucho cantando. Es algo que suele gustarles desde muy pequeñitos, cuando empiezan a moverse al son de una música o intentan tararear una canción. Por tanto, la música y las canciones infantiles se convierten en aliados a la hora de inculcar conocimientos a los niños, ya que los adquieren divirtiéndose, de una forma mucho más dinámica y divertida que si lo hicieran de manera convencional.

En relación con los idiomas, las canciones son una de las herramientas básicas para introducir los conceptos básicos en el aprendizaje del niño. De pequeñitos, tus hijos absorben el conocimiento de forma muy rápida y, casi sin darse cuenta, pues tienen mucha facilidad de aprendizaje. Por lo tanto, es un muy buen momento para potenciar el aprendizaje de una lengua extranjera tan importante como el inglés, que les será muy útil a lo largo de la vida.

¿Y qué mejor que empezar a aprender el idioma al son de entrañables melodías infantiles? A continuación, te ofrecemos 10 populares canciones infantiles en inglés, pensadas para que los pequeños aprendan conceptos básicos del idioma, como el abecedario, los meses del año, el nombre de algunas frutas o las diferentes partes del cuerpo. ¡A cantar!

Twinkle, Twinkle Litte Star

Twinkle, twinkle, little star

How I wonder what you are

Up above the world so high

Like a diamond in the sky

Twinkle, twinkle little star

How I wonder what you are

When the blazing sun is gone

When he nothing shines upon

Then you show your little light

Twinkle, twinkle, all the night

Twinkle, twinkle, little star

How I wonder what you are

I have a Dairy Cow

I have a dairy cow

it´s not just any cow

she gives me condensed milk

for the whole week

clang clang, clang clang,

I have a dairy cow

it´s not just any cow

she grazes in the meadow

and lies in the shadow

clang clang, clang clang

I have a dairy cow

it´s not just any cow

she gives me condensed milk

what a funny drink

clang clang, clang clang

I have a dairy cow

it´s not just any cow

She makes me cherry pies

I can´t believe my eyes

clang clang, clang clang

A hunting we will go

A hunting we will go, a hunting we will go

Heigh ho, the dairy-o, a hunting we will go

A hunting we will go, a hunting we will go

We´ll catch a fox and put him in a box

And then we´ll let him go

A hunting we will go, a hunting we will go

Heigh ho, the dairy-o, a hunting we will go

A hunting we will go, a hunting we will go

We´ll catch a fish and put him on a dish

And then we´ll let him go

A hunting we will go, a hunting we will go

Heigh ho, the dairy-o, a hunting we will go

A hunting we will go, a hunting we will go

We´ll catch a bear and cut his hair

And then we´ll let him go

A hunting we will go, a hunting we will go

Heigh ho, the dairy-o, a hunting we will go

A hunting we will go, a hunting we will go

We´ll catch a pig and dance a little jig

And then we´ll let him go

A hunting we will go, a hunting we will go

Heigh ho, the dairy-o, a hunting we will go

A hunting we will go, a hunting we will go

We´ll catch a giraffe and make him laugh

And then we´ll let him go
