When children say "Fur", respond with, "Sí, sí. Es fur en inglés. Pero, en español es piel. (Yes, yes. It’s fur in English; but, in Spanish it’s piel.) ¡Es piel for our skin, too, except for our face which is “cutis”! Pero, llevamos ropa, también. (But, we wear clothes, too.) ¿Qué llevo yo? (What am I wearing?) ¿Qué llevas tú?” (What are you wearing?) ¿Qué lleva ella/él? (What is she/he wearing?) Repeat using animals' covering vs. our covering. Demonstrate with "practice sample" to put piel on the animals and piel on the child. Have children "clothe" animal and children outlines.
