As far as I can remember the only nursery rhyme I know was "Jack and Jill" bec.I was always left with the nanny.But when I had my first baby I bought cd and tapes of nursery songs.

My favorite was "twinkle.twinkle little star" and "old McDonald"..would you believe if I will have to play the cd I had to dance and make some actions sort of interpretative dance/action so that my baby would imitate me.All my kids are having fun everytime they hear those songs.

It was never too late to know all the nursery songs and it's really fun singing those songs esp. with your kids.sigh..those were the days...they are all big now.My eldest is 12,my 2nd is 10 and the youngest will turn 8 this year.

Do you have a fave nursery rhyme/songs?"three blind mice and itsy bitsy spider" and to make my baby fall asleep..I sing "rock-a-bye baby" yawnwink

Hi sis. You're up early. LOL. The only nursery song that I remember singing to my kids was twinkle, twinkle little star. But whenever I have them to put to sleep I often sing to them "someone's waiting for you". Do you know that song? "be brave little one, make a wish for it's sad little tear......" I sing this song to them with feelings... LOL. Have a nice day sis.

Yup moms can act and dance silly singing the nursery rhymes but if we see our kids love it...it's a great feeling for a mom to see her kids smile and enjoy what you are doing.Have a nice day. wink

pink17,

We all have it wrong with these Nursery rhymes, so I will let you know how they should read,

Jack and Jill Went Up the Hill Nursery Rhyme

Due to the always changing political climate in today's society, the following nursery rhyme:

Jack and Jill went up the hill to fetch a pale of water. Jack fell down and broke his crown; and Jill soon came tumbling after.

has been changed to read:

Two young persons of opposite genders, proceeded toward the apex of a natural geologic protuberance. The purpose of their expedition was to procure a sample of fluid hydride of oxygen in a large vessel, the exact size of which was omniously omitted from the record. As the male person precipitously descended, he consequently sustained severe damage to the upper cranial portion of his anatomy. A similar fate befell the female, who immediately after the male person, performed a self-rotational translation oriented in the same direction having been traversed by the young man.

OMG I don't think that kids will understand that though.lol.Hopefully as we age they will not change the nursery rhyme we know since we were young. happy

Try reading the jack and jill version of hiccup...the one who responded before you.A child will have a hard time to memorize the version of hiccup.


myLot reputation of 97/100. zer0charly (1402)  1 year ago

yeah. I've read what he wrote in there. and I too can't memorize it!lol

My favorite was The Cat And The Fiddle. If you are unfamiliar with it, it goes like this:

Hey diddle, diddle, the cat and the fiddle,
The cow jumped over the moon;
The little dog laughed to see such sport,
And the dish ran away with the spoon.

This is my youngest son's favorite too. He gets a big kick out of it whenever we read it together. lol


myLot reputation of 96/100. pinks17 (723)   ranked 589 out of 2,712 in children  1 year ago

Yup I know that sacmom.I have 4 tapes of nursery rhymes and cds it was given to me during my baby shower.My kids love the twinkle,twinkle..and we'll do action together.lol
