About
Join Cucu's Playhouse (virtually) every day from Monday through Saturday at 1:30pm EST and 7:30pm EST for singing, dancing and playing while learning Spanish, all from the comfort of your own home.

In this class, your child will enjoy a selection of children's songs in Spanish and participate in related activities that help cement the words and their meanings. Some of the songs even encourage kids to get up and dance! Nilda uses puppets, musical instruments, and props to teach children basic vocabulary through action and interaction, rather than through translation.

The classes are streamed on Zoom's webinar platform. Participants (children, parents, nannies) are able to join the video from their homes and interact with us in real-time, it is a fun and engaging experience.

Nos encantó la clase. Muy educativa y auténtica. Donde vivimos no existen muchas opciones para familias bilingües. Estamos muy felices de haber encontrado esta clase. Las canciones son dinámicas y divertidas, mi niña no paraba de bailar. La profesora explica el vocabulario antes de cada canción, e interactua mucho con los niños durante la clase. Altamente recomendada!

About
Cucu's PlayHouse is a Language Immersion School located in San Rafael, California that specializes in teaching Spanish through Music and Movement to children aged 3 months to 5 years old.

Through singing, dancing, and playing interactive games, Cucu's PlayHouse stimulates children's creativity and imagination, encourages speech development, social and physical skills and develops their innate musicality. Along with spoken language, music is one of the most valuable learning tools—and Cucu's PlayHouse lets kids learn while having fun! In addition to all the undeniable benefits of engaging your child in musical activities from an early age, Cucu's PlayHouse class will also expose them to a second language. According to recent studies, the ideal age to start exposing kids to a second language is between 0 and 3 years of age—doing so stimulates their brain development and benefits kids cognitively, socially and culturally.

Nilda is the Lead teacher of Cucu's PlayHouse. She currently teaches the virtual classes only. Her passion for music started at an early age. Growing up in a family of Cuban musicians, she was exposed to a rainbow of latin rhythms and sounds. Her culture revolves around music and dance, and she loves to share it with others. Her natural ability to engage with small children, allows her to capture their attention and provide a nourishing learning experience. She is extremely creative and is constantly developing new musical activities and games for the program.
