Halo, agus fàilte air ais gu Cròileagan air loidhne!
Hello, and welcome back to online Cròileagan!
For the time being we are unable to restart any of our Cròileagan sessions as they used to run, and so we will continue to support our families with their Gaelic learning the best that we can virtually.
Thank you to everyone who took the time to answer our survey. We have taken note of the answers, which generally all agreed that everyone would like to continue with the vocabulary, include more stories and songs, as well as the fact that people missed the social interaction. While we are not allowed to organise any face to face meetings, even outdoor ones, we are looking into ways we can set up some virtual social meetings and spaces. We'll share more once we know more about what we are permitted to do.
We are also hoping to be able to share more videos that include ourselves, like book readings, but before we can do that we need to find a way to get to all of our Cròileagan books which are currently all in buildings that we don't have access to!
Anyway, onto this week's topic, which is A' Bhodhaig - The Body.
We'll start off with the song, Cuir do làmhan air do cheann - Put your hands on your head - which you can watch and listen to by clicking here. We used to sing this at some of our groups but it may be new to others.
If you click on the icon you can see at the top left of the screen with the song, you can download all of the words.
The basic body part words are:
You can hear how to pronounce these words below.
If you have already learned these, or would like to learn some more words then have a look at this table too:

If you would like to do a craft that will give you a chance to practise talking about these body parts with your little one then how about this one? Click here to be taken to the site with the downloads for it.
