* I Can Play Soccer by Edana Ekhart
* Futbol=Soccer by Holly Karpetekova
* Froggy Plays Soccer by Jonathan London
* Datos Geniales Sobre Futbol=Cool Soccer Facts
Activity: When it rained, we did find a cool coloring page on the Crayola site. On sunny days, we went outside with a couple soccer balls and practiced hitting goals!
