Las canciones contienen lengua auténtica, proporcionan vocabulario y gramática, permiten trabajar la pronunciación y favorecen tanto el conocimiento de los aspectos culturales de la lengua de estudio, como la asociación de la lengua a la cultura. A todo esto hay que añadir el poder de la música para estimular las emociones, la sensibilidad y la imaginación sin olvidar las consecuencias que se derivan de la capacidad que poseen las canciones para “engancharse” a nuestra memoria, la celebración del Día del Padre es otra excelente oportunidad para poner en práctica todos estos aspectos.
