Here are some of our favourite silly rhymes ... we hope you like them too! It's always a good idea for a child to have a silly rhyme or poem they can bring out to recite when required, and these are short and sweet so will do the trick for younger children very well.
Roses are red
Violets are blue
Some poems rhyme
But this one doesn’t!
The night was dark and stormy
The bathroom light was dim
I heard a crash, I heard a splash!
Oh Gosh – he’s fallen in!
Jack and Jill
Went up the hill
To fetch a pail of water,
Jack fell down and broke his crown
and Jill collapsed with laughter!
As I was coming down the stair
I met a man who wasn't there.
He wasn't there again today
I wish that man would go away!
I eat my peas with honey
I’ve done it all my life
It makes them taste quite funny
But it keeps them on the knife!
Mary had a bionic cow,
It lived on safety pins.
And every time she milked that cow
The milk came out in tins.
I never saw a purple cow.
I never hope to see one.
But I can tell you anyhow,
I'd rather see than be one!
