Rhymes are central to building children language skills. Many rhymes and songs are rhythmic and the language is often repetitive, which helps preschoolers build their language skills. Using hand and facial actions with rhymes help children identify words more easily e.g. ‘clap your hands’. The best thing about rhymes is that they are free, and can be done anywhere and at anytime!
