In today’s magical episode, we join Luna la Mariposa as she explores the days of the week in Spanish — through colors, counting, and friendship! This bilingual story weaves in familiar vocabulary from past Luna episodes and introduces new phrases and expressions to help young learners build confidence and comprehension.
You’ll hear the story twice:
- First in a bilingual version (English narration with Spanish vocabulary sprinkled in).
- Then again, completely in Spanish to enjoy the rhythm and flow of the language.
Whether you're listening at home or in the classroom, this episode is designed to make Spanish fun, natural, and memorable for your little learners.
