Spanish lullabies?

Question

I'm looking for Spanish, Mexican, or any central/south American lullabies and childrens' songs. Titles, and if there's a recording and you can tell me which artist does the best, that would be GREAT. Thanks so much!

Busco canciones de cuna españoles, mexicanos, o de america central/del sur en general. Muchas gracias!

Answer 1

My all time favorite:

Duérmete niño, duérmete ya que si no te duermes el cuco te comerá

I found a cd of children's songs in Spanish on e-bay. It was a Feliz Cumpleaños cd but it included all the children's songs that I remembered from my childhood. My students learned them all. I think their favorite was the spider song- "Un elefante se balanceaba sobre la tela de una araña.....)
