Thirteen of my favorite nursery rhymes Nursery rhymes, and rhymes in general, are super important in the developmental stages of babies up through grade school. And since I am embarking on this "Mother Goose Storytime" program designed for babies ages six months to two years, I have been immersed in finger plays and songs lately, hence the theme of my TT. (Note: Since babies will learn rhymes whether you teach them or not, isn't it better to have them learn Mother Goose rather than commercial jingles?!?). 1. The Queen of Hearts (I get so dang mad at that knave!) 2. One, Two, Buckle My Shoe (I still have issues with math...) 3. Mary, Mary, Quite Contrary (I like gardens.) 4. Three Blind Mice (If nothing else, but for the violence of the tail cutting with a carving knife!) 5. Old Mother Hubbard (Dude, that dog is whack.) 6. Hot Crossed Buns (I can play this on the piano.) 7. Mary Had A Little Lamb (I've always had a pet...I can identify) 8. Hey Diddle Diddle, The Cat And The Fiddle (running tableware is an excellent concept.) 9. Little Miss Muffet (What are "curds and whey," a nasty way of saying cottage cheese?) 10. This Little Piggy (Isn't this everyone's favorite?) 11. London Bridge Is Falling Down (I've been there!) 12. Peter Peter Pumpkin Eater (My boy would put me in a pumpkin if he could fit me.) 13. Hush Little Baby Don't Say A Word (I need a sugar daddy!) Links to other Thursday Thirteens! Lazy Daisy... Squashed Toad... Jennifer... Ladybug... Susie... Nelly... Shelly... Shizzle (Lisa)... |

Trying to Catch Up: Thursday 13
My favorite:
There was a little girl
who had a little curl
right in the middle of her forehead
and when she was good
she was very very good
and when she was bad she was horrid!!
My dad used to tell me that one quite often. I also love Georgie Porgie.
Awesome list! I love Hush Little Baby... one of my total favourites.
Thanks for stopping by!

I am now reminiscing my pre-school days :)
Happy weekend. ;)
