About this episode

This episode explores the traditional Mexica lullaby 'Tu Tu Teshcote' and its cultural significance.

“Tu Tu Teshcote” is a traditional lullaby from the Mexica (Aztec) people of central Mexico, reflecting the rhythms of family life in and around Tenochtitlan before Spanish contact. Passed down orally through generations, it blends gentle repetition with Nahuatl language sounds to soothe children while preserving a small piece of pre-Columbian cultural heritage. It is one of our favorite songs to listen to when we want to relax and drift off into a magical and peaceful place. ❤️ Click the following link to learn more about our virtual Spanish lessons - www.EatYourSpanish.com ❤️
