Composer: Spanish folk song
Listening link: Al Pavo Pavito - YouTube
Translation:
Al pavo pavito, pavo To the turkey, little turkey, turkey
Al pavo pavito, si To the turkey, little turkey, yes
El pavito se ha marchado The little turkey has gone away
Y el pavito ya esta aqui! And the little turkey now is here!
Game:
With an odd number of children, students hold hands and make a circle. They sing the song three times, saying the number of times they have sung it after each verse. At the end, each student finds a partner, leaving one person with no partner. Everyone says “pavo!” three times to that person, who is “out.” That person can choose another student to take out also, leaving an odd number of children to repeat the game.
