We are making uo a sign for our Casa and not sure of the correct Spanish language,should it be Casita de Poco Oso or Casita de Oso Poco.

What do you want it to say (English)? Sounds like the Little Bear's Shack? Poco is a 'small quantity' more than small in size, like chica or
chiquita... The Spanish speakers here will have the right term, I am sure...Oso - 6-23-2006 at 08:09 AM
If you're trying to say little bear, it's osito, but casita del osito- the little bear's little house, is a bit redundant, no? Little Bear's House
would be Casa de Osito or simply Casa Osito, or in slang "Ca' Osito. Capitalization and use of de or del depends on whether it's a generic little
bear or Little Bear as someone's name.Natalie Ann - 6-23-2006 at 02:40 PM

Kate -
Don't know if that's what he meant, but most definitely I like your take on it... just the right size.
Next time we're in La Paz at the same time, how's about we get together for a margarita/cerveza/iced tea/or (ugh!) clamato?!
