In this episode of Music in Our Homeschool, we’re diving into simple-to-use, click-and-go, no-prep music lesson ideas for National Hispanic Heritage Month (September 15–October 15). You’ll learn the fascinating history behind the celebration, explore the difference between “Hispanic” and “Latino,” and discover engaging ways to bring the vibrant sounds of Latin America and Spain into your homeschool.

From mariachi and samba to classical composers and Broadway hits, I’ll share music lessons, cultural activities, and hands-on crafts that your kids will actually love. Whether you try singing Spanish folk songs, watching a Paraguayan bottle dance, making homemade maracas, or studying composers like Villa-Lobos and Ginastera, you’ll find something for every age and homeschool schedule.
