Watch or listen to the rhymes in the It’s Time to Rhyme!’ calendar

We hope you are enjoying singing rhymes with your children. You can watch videos of the rhymes from the It’s Time to Rhyme!’ calendar here. We’ve grouped all the rhymes by their weekly theme.

Week 1: number rhymes

Number rhymes are great for learning to count. The repetition is fun and helps children to learn the words.

Week 2: action rhymes

Making movements can help children to remember the words and to join in with rhymes.

Week 3: animal rhymes

Animal rhymes often include fun animal sounds which children love to make. Sounds are the building blocks for talking, reading and writing, so don’t worry about feeling silly!

Week 4: nursery rhymes

These rhymes have been with us for generations. They often include words that are less common in everyday language and are a connection to the past.

Week 5: rhymes all day

Say these little rhymes at different times of the day. Make them part of your routine.
