Children develop their mouth and tongue muscles by using the different sounds in the rhyme.
Rhymes that involve movement help with coordination such as “Twinkle Twinkle Little Star” and “Incy Wincy Spider”.
In dramatic play, children use their whole bodies to act out the nursery rhymes they hear.
SOCIAL/EMOTIONAL DEVELOPMENT
Sharing nursery rhymes provides a safe and secure bond between parents and children.
Positive physical touch between a parent and a child or between children, for example, during clapping rhymes, is important for social development.
Funny nursery rhymes allow children to develop a sense of humour.
Nursery rhymes characters experience many different emotions. This can help children identify their own emotion and understand the real emotions of others.
When children act out the nursery rhyme stories they hear, they learn to imagine, be creative, and express themselves.
