This is a game that the girls have learned here in Mexico
Everyone forms a ring and one person is chosen to be
the wolf. He stands aside while the others go around
and sing this little rhyme.
Jugaremos en el bosque mientras que el lobo no está y si
el lobo aparece a todos nos comerá.
¿Lobo lobito estás ahí?
(We will play in the forest while the wolf isn't here and if
the wolf appears he will eat us all.
Wolf, little wolf are you there?)
And the wolf answers
Me estoy bañando
(I'm bathing)
And again the children go around and sing this:
Jugaremos en el bosque mientras que el lobo no está y si
el lobo aparece a todos nos comerá.
¿Lobo lobito estás ahí?
Again the wolf answers
Me estoy comiendo
(I'm eating)
or
Me estoy buscando las llaves
(I'm looking for my keys)
The wolf can answer what ever he wants
And when the wolf says
Voy en el camino or
(I'm on my way)
Salgo para comerlos a todos
(I'm coming to eat all of you)
All the children run and the wolf catches one person
and now the one caught will be the new wolf!
And you start all over again.
I want to watch your kids play this and hear them say the rhymes in Spanish!! Miss you guys!
