The Spanish Counting Song

"The Spanish Counting Song" is a Sesame Street song by Maria to instruct how to count to 10 in Spanish.
The song has been performed a number of times on the show. Its first performance originally aired in season 12 , in which a worried Telly Monster tries to teach a group of kids how to count in Spanish, only to realize he can't do it himself. Maria teaches Telly so he can teach the kids, but still frets about the idea of being asked to teach how to count in other languages.
The song was later re-recorded as a season 15 insert where Maria performed it with two kids, patting them on the hand as a cue to repeat after her. This version uses the same music as the previous one, but at a slightly faster tempo. Maria would sing it again with the kids and Big Bird at the beginning of Episode 3990.
Maria and Big Bird performed the song on Live! in 1995.
