This post is in partnership with Nick Jr. in celebration of Hispanic Heritage Month. However, my love of this product is 100% mine.
Fun fact about me: Even though I was born in Miami, FL, I didn’t speak English until I started preschool. My parents knew once I started school I would pick up English right away and they wanted to make sure I had a firm grasp of Spanish. Growing up in Miami this concept was actually quite easy because of the strong Latin population you’ll find there. My early years weren’t filled with typical English nursery rhymes or songs but Spanish favorites like. “PinPon” & “Los Pollitos Dicen” albeit they weren’t exactly main stream outside of the Latin community these songs are what remind me of my early years. I can still remember my mom & grandmother signing these songs to me as a little girl. The smell of their perfumes, the sound of their voices and joy I felt every time we sang together.
Thankfully, I can replicate this feeling and love of these (and many other classic Spanish nursery rhyme songs I grew up listening to) with my kids thanks to Canticos and Nick Jr. Best of all these classics have now become Bilingual bridging both worlds for my little ones.
Canticos pairs classic nursery rhymes from all over the Spanish-speaking world with adorable animal characters to create educational music videos. Kids can learn simple vocabulary words, numbers, the days of the week, and more, in English and Spanish.
You can access them easily on any mobile device through Nick Jr.’s free app or on your computer through their YouTube channel for fun play, dance and learning time.
The team behind Canticos is dedicated to telling authentic, relevant stories that come directly out of their own personal experiences growing up with these songs and characters.
Their mission is to ignite and advance creative thinking in kids everywhere through storytelling and the power of play.

A great Christmas gift idea for my little niece!
This would be great for my granddaughter. Sadly I never learned another language in school.
I absolutely believe children should be exposed to more than one language while they are little. This is such a fantastic way to do that! I’ll definitely be recommending this to my friends with small children.
It sounds like a great way to engage your chil(ren). Watching bilingual shows or even just shows in the second language can really help with idioms and more colloquial diction than you encounter in a classroom setting.
I think it is great for our children to learn spanish at a young age. This is a great way to do it. Thank you so much for sharing
We don’t have cable but this is neat
This is new to me. What a great idea to get them started on a new language early. Thanks for posting!
So important for our little ones to be bilingual, especially in my beautiful state of Florida. This is a tool that would be great for my children and I think Santa may just be delivering this for Christmas!
I love that this app makes it fun and easy for them to learn.

We live in the day and age where it is so important for us to know Spanish. This sounds like a great fun way for our children to learn. Thank you so much for sharing this

It’s so important to instill Spanish or other languages to our kids especially when they are young. Love these songs!

What a great show for kids. I love educational shows.
What a great way for kids to learn Spanish. I always enjoyed Spanish classes as a kid.
