Q: What does the flag of Mexico look like? — Bart, 6, New York

Tito: I have only seen the Eiffel Tower in books and on TV. But I think it looks beautiful! Abuela says that she visited the Eiffel Tower once many years ago, and it’s even better in person than in pictures!

Q: Hi tito my name is nallely I am ten years old I speak Spanish too and I’m also from mexico I was born there and sometimes I fell really bad because I miss my beautiful and dear mexico so much what can I do so I don’t feel bad? — Nallely, 11, Arkansas

Tito: Dear Nallely, I know exactly how you feel. When I first moved away from Mexico, I missed it very much. But it helped me a lot to talk to my family about it. Abuela and I sat together and look at pictures of my old neighborhood and my cousins who still live in Mexico. We remembered lots of funny stories together and laughed a lot! And when I was sad, my mom cooked her famous caldo de pollo (chicken soup) for me which made me feel even better.

Q: Hi Tito. My school does a jog a thon every year. That means we jog around the playground as many times as we can in a hour. I did 35 laps. What is 35 in spanish? — Wesley, 7, Washington

Tito: Dear Wesley, We do a jog-a-thon too! Except we run around a little field at the back of the school. In Spanish, “35” is “treinta y cinco” (you say it “treh-een-tah ee SINK-o”). Wow, that’s a lot of laps!
