Nursery Rhymes
Rhymes are merry little things for children. Rhyming actually makes children concentrate and also enjoy the fun of words. This is the best way to get them into narrating or to say a poem aloud. Rhymes are of many types and have been doing their rounds since ages. Grandma’s rhymes, Mother goose rhymes or simple poems with a tendency to rhyme are about music and melody put together to sound good for children. |

Baa, baa black sheep
Baa, baa black sheep
Have you any wool
Yes sir, yes sir
Three bags full.
One for my master
And one for my dame
And one for the little boy
Who lives down the lane.

The Farmer in the Dell
The farmer in the dell,
The farmer in the dell,
Heigh-ho, the derry-o,
The farmer in the dell.
The farmer takes a wife,

Heigh-ho, the derry-o,
The farmer takes a wife.
The wife takes a child,
The wife takes a child,
Heigh-ho, the derry-o,
The wife takes a child.
The child takes a nurse,
The child takes a nurse,
Heigh-ho, the derry-o,
The child takes a nurse.
The nurse takes a dog,
The nurse takes a dog,
Heigh-ho, the derry-o,
The nurse takes a dog.
The dog takes a cat,
The dog takes a cat,
Heigh-ho, the derry-o,
The dog takes a cat.
The cat takes a rat,
The cat takes a rat,
Heigh-ho, the derry-o,

The cheese stands alone,
The cheese stands alone,
Heigh-ho, the derry-o,
The cheese stands alone.

I'm a little teapot
I'm a little teapot
Short and stout
Here is my handle
Here is my spout
When I get all steamed up
Hear me shout:
Tip me over
and pour me out!

Twinkle, twinkle, little star,
Twinkle, twinkle, little star,
How I wonder what you are!
Up above the world so high,
Like a diamond in the sky.
Twinkle, twinkle, little star,
How I wonder what you are!
When the blazing sun is gone,
When he nothing shines upon,
Then you show your little light,
Twinkle, twinkle, all the night.
Twinkle, twinkle, little star,
How I wonder what you are!
Then the traveler in the dark
Thanks you for your tiny spark;
He could not see which way to go,
If you did not twinkle so.
Twinkle, twinkle, little star,
How I wonder what you are!
In the dark blue sky you keep,
And often through my curtains peep,
For you never shut your eye
Till the sun is in the sky.
Twinkle, twinkle, little star,
How I wonder what you are!
As your bright and tiny spark
Lights the traveler in the dark,
Through I know not what you are,
Twinkle, twinkle, little star.
Twinkle, twinkle, little star,
How I wonder what you are!
