What better way to continue our theme of just relaxing and enjoying the holiday season than with family games? So gather your loved ones around and begin incorporating Spanish into your playtime! After all, language learning is hard work, but it should be fun! :) For this episode, I tried to focus on games that most people might have just lying around their home and could play in Spanish instead of English.

Today's episode is the last in our 3-part series on animals, baby animals, and more (see Episodes 60 and 59)! Finally, today we get to the "more" - what are some of the collective nouns Spanish speakers use when referring to animals? While it's not nearly as complex as the list we have in English, there are still a good number to go over. We'll also discuss some of English's more unique collective nouns, and finish up our Cultural Tips on Peru!

In today's episode, we're going to continue discussing the names of different animals and their babies. In Episode 59, we talked about pets and park / outdoor animals. Today, let's focus on wild animals and those you'd find on the farm!
(I apologize for how late this episode is. We have been dealing with several family crises, so thank you for your patience as I work through them.)

While reading books to my little girl, I asked myself, "Do we talk a lot about the different animal names in Spanish?" While I originally thought that all you had to do in Spanish was add "ito" or "ita" to make an animal a baby (such as perrito for perro and gatito for gato), after doing some research I've found that there are, in fact, different, more specific animal names in Spanish. Hence this new three-part series on animal names, with the first two episodes focusing on the specific terms for animals and their babies, followed by the final episode focusing on collective names (group names, like herd or flock). I hope you enjoy it! Or at the very least, that it equips you to help teach the little ones in your life the different animal names in Spanish. :)
*Also, I messed up in this episode. I said a duckling in Spanish was pavipollo or pavezno, but those are actually terms for baby turkey, or poult. I don't know why, but I have been struggling with mixing those two animals. They are completely different, I know! But there it is. Duckling is el patito or anadón, since ánade means duck as well. Sorry for the confusion!*
