Did you know…. Nursery Rhymes lay the foundation to early language and literacy development?

Research shows that rhymes help children to grasp the rhythm of language and break down phrases into words and words into sounds; an important skill needed to be able to read and write.

The repetitive structures used in nursery rhymes are also your child’s first introduction to early maths skills as it introduces patterns and many rhymes will often also include numbers and counting too.
