Fall Pumpkin Songs: Learn French and Spanish Body Parts
Alouette is an awesome song for teaching body parts to beginners. Of course, most people don’t realize that it’s really about a poor bird that gets brutally plucked, part by part!
At Foreign Language House, we’ve changed the words to this traditional song just in time for the fall harvest season. Use these fun pumpkin Alouette songs to teach parts of the face in French and Spanish. You’ll find these songs and lots more in French Body Parts Fall Festival Fun and Spanish Body Parts Fall Festival Fun.

I’ve already used the French pumpkin song with my preschoolers. They caught on to it like that (snap!) We also have skeleton versions of these songs in French Body Parts Halloween Fun and Spanish Body Parts Halloween Fun. Enjoy the fall season in French and Spanish.
