It’s the holiday season and all of the Canticos characters have gathered together to celebrate their traditions and welcome in the New Year. Join us as we celebrate the joy of the season.
Our little froggy Coquí has a song she likes to sing to the beat of the conga. As she sings it, her friends come along, so she incorporates each one of them into her song as they show up.
Mama Hen is so busy but she always makes time for fun activities with her Little Chickies. She's hidden a whole bunch of eggs, and the chickies can't wait to find each one, counting them as they go along.
Pin Pon is in charge, and he's going to teach us all about heads, shoulders, knees and toes but, our Little Chickies also want to join and sing about their tummies and their wings!
Lili and the Chickies are putting on a show with one of the most famous Mexican songs ever written, but stagehand Benji has a way of getting distracted.
The Canticos cast comes together as a music band to celebrate the universal emotion that is LOVE! They sing about what it is, how it makes them feel, and why it's just the most important feeling to spread all around the world.
Sammy is cooking up something yummy, and Benji can't wait to taste it. In this fun song, we chop up our veggies and learn their names one at a time.
Rain or shine, Kiki, Ricky and Nicky enjoy all kinds of weather while celebrating one of Mexico's most famous songs. Build weather vocabulary while singing along to our original lyrics.
Our three Little Chickies are going out for a swim dressed up like fishies. But, Mama Hen always says, "don't talk to strangers,” so when a shark wants to play they’ll have to say "no!"
The Canticos friends want to let you know exactly how they feel. Whether they are happy, sad, angry or excited, this song helps us learn about emotions and how to express them.
Piñata time is everyone's favorite time and the Canticos characters are all super excited to take a turn! Learn a new shape with each toy or piece of candy that flies out of this piñata.
Sammy is "it" in this game of hide and seek and those Little Chickies can be pretty tricky hiders. Up, down, inside and outside are some of the opposites we’ll learn as we look for them

Every Little Chickie has a wish, and Ricky, Nicky and Kiki are no different! Ricky wants to sail, Nicky wants to ride and Kiki wants to fly - watch them as all their dreams come true!
Benji the Elephant is out for a walk, and along the way, he's happy to meet and greet his friends with a cheery good morning, good afternoon or good evening as his day goes by!
It’s a celebration! Canticos characters go from house to house, rounding up their friends for a large “parranda” at Sammy’s house. Good food, good music and good holiday cheer.
Sammy knows that anytime can be party time! He summons up a Cuban Son beat and leads his friends in some great dance moves to the tune of an old classic.
All aboard the colorful Canticos bus as we sing our way through the countryside. Pin Pon drives with Sammy in the front and Benji toots along from the top deck of the bus.
Oh no! Nicky Chickie got hurt! And when little ones get hurt we sing the Boo Boo song, because things heal quicker when you’re having fun! Guest appearance from Coquí the frog.
