Rhyming Words for Kids (Complete List)

Many of us have fond memories of learning nursery rhymes and rhyming stories when we were children.

These tales are important because they expose children to rhyme, which is essential for language development. Children who have strong early language abilities, including listening and speaking, are shown to develop more robust reading and writing skills.

Helping your child recognize and use rhyme will help them first with their verbal language and then with their literacy. Introducing rhyming words for kids is an excellent way to do that.

How Do You Teach Rhyming Words To Children?

Children learn about rhyme in three stages, although there is much overlap as they move from one step to another.

Rhyme Exposure

This is when your child hears rhyming words. This can be in songs while reading rhyming together, or elsewhere. At this stage, you should point out rhyming words to your child.

Rhyme Recognition

Once your child hears a rhyme and points it out, they have reached the stage of rhyme recognition.

Rhyme Production

Finally, your child will be able to produce rhyme themselves. They may take great pride in asking you questions, such as, “Do you know what rhymes with door? More!”

While this may seem like a small thing to you, to them it’s big. Make sure to show them that you’re impressed with their newly-found knowledge.

Ways To Teach Rhyming Words

Make learning to rhyme fun by using some of these methods.

Share Rhyme In Books, Poems, And Songs

Reading rhyming books and poems and singing together will expose your child to rhymes in a fun, relaxing way. Read the complete story or sing the entire song first and then go back and point out the rhymes.

Then, when your child is aware of the concept of rhyming, ask them to point out the pairs of rhyming words they hear or read.

Once your child is familiar with rhymes, read or sing, but don’t say the second rhyming word. Instead, ask your child to provide a suitable rhyme.

Puzzles

Rhyme word puzzles are a fun way for your child to practice pairing up rhyming words.

Clip Cards

Not all rhyming words have the same spelling at the end. To prevent your child from becoming confused by the spelling, use peg cards where your child picks the correct rhyme according to the picture.

Lap Books

Create nursery rhyme lap-books with your child. First, print out the standard nursery rhyme and then have your child replace the original word with another of their own that rhymes.

Rhyming Dictionaries

Help your child find suitable rhyming words with a rhyming dictionary. These can be immensely helpful no matter what age you are, especially if you are a teacher, writer, or write lyrics for songs.

Rhyming Words For Kindergarten

These are great options for those who are younger than kindergarten or those who are still working on completing that first year in school. These are simple words that won’t be too challenging for this age.

Rhymes in syllabo-tonic versification

It is widely believed that creating a poem is easy: just choose rhymes. This is one of the most ignorant misconceptions, since the poet's toolkit consists not only of rhyme, but of poetic meter, sound writing, figures of speech and tropes, not to mention the methods of constructing the plot of a poem and other syntactic phenomena (for example, caesura).

You should immediately pay attention: rhyme, as well as the size, is not an obligatory element of a poetic text, which is exemplified by blank verses and free verse. Nevertheless, it is especially characteristic for Russian folklore, where it has been used and is used to this day in the form, as a rule, of verbal consonances: came - found. It was the folklore origin of the Russian-language rhyme that determined its further distribution in the poetic work of our compatriots. nine0003

It should also be noted that rhyme is inherent primarily in poetic works, which include even rhymed advertising slogans and texts of such popular rap artists. Now it is precisely in poetry that it has become fixed almost as an inevitable element of verse. Previously, consonances were used even in political and scientific tracts - to bring enthusiasm to the style and highlight especially important parts of the text.

What is called rhyme

Rhyme is used to denote consonance in words; usually at the end of a word. A classic example of rhyme, which is common in the minds of ordinary people, is a clause - the last stressed syllable in a line, followed by all unstressed syllables and consonants. For example: customize - bark ; here the stress in both words falls on the penultimate syllable, so the rhyme will be in clause -yaem - -ayem.

So, rhyme is consonance. But does it have to be at the end of a verse (a verse, roughly speaking, is one line of a poem)? And can a pair of mute - yoke and (Brodsky) be considered a rhyme? It will be possible to talk about this after delving into the nature of consonance, but first you need to familiarize yourself with its basics.

Basic types of rhyme

The principal classification of clauses in versification is based on the place where they are stressed:

  • Male rhyme. The emphasis falls on the very last syllable in the verse: socks - sands.
  • Feminine rhyme. The emphasis is placed on the penultimate syllable of the clause: important - twice . In the 18th century, when Russian versification was born and underwent rapid development, it was believed that it was female rhyme that could express all the beauty of the Russian language. Already 19The th century completely refuted this assertion, and the modernists left no basis for it at all.
  • Dactylic rhyme. Here, the intonational accent is on the third syllable from the end of the clause: cash - excellent for them (this is a compound clause - a complicated version of an ordinary one; more on that below).
  • Hyperdactylic. The stress, respectively, falls on the fourth syllable from the end. This clause is very rarely used in poetry, since such words are not only difficult for the author to choose for the poem, but also difficult for the reader to pronounce. They are presented in a relatively large number in the poetry of V. Bryusov. An example, albeit a banal one: slingers - riveters.

In the Russian system of versification, stress can be placed up to the ninth syllable from the end of a word. Such rhymes are not used anywhere, but the term for them still exists - superhyperdactylic clauses - this is how it is customary to call all types of rhymes that come after hyperdactylic ones.

The sound and feeling of rhyme

Since rhyme is primarily a musical phenomenon, it should be perceived only by ear. It is for this reason that a great poet has a good ear. This is already a somewhat in-depth understanding of consonance: so what is the difference between the above-described pair mute - yoke and from, say, a pair of snow - bliss ?
There is also a separate classification for the sound characteristics of rhyme. It is important to note that each example of consonance is incredibly individual. Words are difficult to categorize, and there can be quite a lot of controversial points when analyzing the sound of a rhyme in a certain poem.

  • Rich clause. Not only the stressed syllable matches, but also the syllables after and/or before it. The role of even consonant sounds is important here (namely, sounds, not letters, since the latter do not sound at all, but the first ones are perceived by ear): line - verst ; in this example, the sounds of the second word are diluted with the consonant "s", which is why this consonance can be called rich only due to the coincidence of both syllables. This group includes the second presented pair: snow - bliss.
  • Poor clause. This group is characterized by the coincidence of only the stressed syllable. This includes the first pair: mute - yoke and , since only the stressed syllable matches, and the syllables before and after it are expressed by different sounds. These clauses significantly increase the space for the author's stylistic and plot maneuvers, since such rhymes can be picked up much more than rich ones. Another plus of this group of consonances is the originality of the sound of a well-chosen inaccurate rhyme, which is fresh for the ears of even a sophisticated reader and critic: aiming - Venezuela e (Mayakovsky).
  • Exact consonance. A common type of sound in the 19th century. Rhymes with exact consonance should be as similar as possible to each other both in stressed syllables and in supporting ones. Most of the rich clauses are immediate and precise. Example: dollars - walked.
  • Inaccurate consonance . This category of consonances began to supplant the exact rhymes that were the standard of versification of the 19th century, in the era of modernism in literature - in the 20th century. This group of clauses is especially vividly represented in the works of V. Mayakovsky (with his favorite compound rhymes): paper I am magic, the wick flies, the tariff is rhyme . With poor pronunciation or not very sensitive hearing, these consonances may not be noticed at all, but if the author skillfully uses inaccurate rhymes, then his poetry will be enriched with unusual sounds.

Clausal scheme and rhymes in solid forms

Surely every reader remembers at least some quatrains from the school literature curriculum. But far fewer of them know that the quatrain is a classic solid poetic form - a quatrain:

Staring deeply at the stone,
The artist saw the nymph in him,
And a flame ran through the veins,
And his heart flew to her.
(Baratynsky)

The clause scheme - which line rhymes with which - in the quatrain can be presented in three variations, which became the most common arrangement of consonances in the world poetry of the 19th-20th century.

  • Cross rhyming. Scheme: abab (the same letters denote the same clause): stone - sight - flame - flew . This type of arrangement of clauses can be called the most popular among both beginner poets (because of the ease of compilation) and venerable authors (because of their adherence to classical forms).
  • Paired rhyming. Schematic: aabb: stone - flame - sight - flew. The rarest type of arrangement of clauses from all three presented, since there is no distance between verses where one or more rhymes can be inserted. But for long verses (lines) this is the most suitable scheme. nine0038
  • Encircling rhyme . Scheme: abba: stone - sighted - flew - flame . This scheme requires the author to already have a certain level of skill and a good ear, since the first rhyme can be lost after two lines with a different clause, so the poet needs to say it out loud several times.

The Onegin stanza, also known to everyone from school, is also a solid poetic form. The solidity of the form lies in the fact that it has its own clausal scheme, and sometimes even requires the use of a certain meter (as with a classic Italian sonnet or Alexandrian verse). The Onegin stanza is subjected by the author to a strict arrangement of clauses, the scheme of which is as follows (It is customary to denote female rhymes in capital letters, male rhymes in lower case): AbAb CCdd EffE gg.

The poet, based on his experience, level of language proficiency and stylistic devices, poetic meters, tropes and figures of speech, can vary several types of rhymes even within the same work, without being limited within a certain fixed meter, and even come up with his own.

Some other types of rhyme

Having accumulated both theoretical and practical knowledge about the main types of clauses and how to place them in a poem, the poet can improve his knowledge of poetic language by starting to use the types of consonance described below. nine0003

  • Compound rhymes. Such a favorite type of consonance by Vladimir Mayakovsky is deservedly considered one of the most original ways of rhyming, since it combines different parts of speech: for example, a particle and an adverb: molasses - again (Brodsky).
  • Homonymous rhymes . For clauses, homonyms are used here - words with different meanings, but the same in pronunciation and spelling. Example: (in the ears) rock - (in fate) rock.
  • Punning rhyme. The same, but instead of homonyms - puns. Example: the girls went to the garden at night, / As if de Sade wrote from them.
  • Internal rhyme. This is already a radically new type of consonance, since it is not a clause - it does not complete the line, but is located approximately in its middle. It is important that with such an arrangement of consonance, the size is correctly built, otherwise the poem can simply be broken at the place of internal rhyme into one more line. Example: over you, over a small river, / Over water, whose way is far... (Tvardovsky) In the example, the word "you" rhymes with "water".
  • Double internal rhyme. In this variation of the above-described consonance, words in one line rhyme, and the clauses connecting different lines may be absent altogether, as in free verse or blank verse. For example: The last time you are at your table, the last time you returned to the house, / The last time the wife carries the cake, 9 is reflected across the glass0020 (Eugene Rein). In this example, there is no clause as such. But in these lines (also Yevgeny Rein) both the internal rhyme and the clause are already present: Under the dome the Savior in sandals and his robe curls, / The Savior who fed his contrite children.
  • Echo rhyme . The line repeats some part of the clause of the line with which it rhymes, thereby creating an echo effect. For example: Hold on, Detroit of the world! / …Oh, you! nine0020 (A. Bezymensky).
  • Pantorhyme . One of the most spectacular types of consonance, in which not the final parts of the verse (clauses) rhyme, but any number of words between (and within) two or more lines. In other words, with such consonance, the lines contain both internal and clause rhymes, which can be arranged in an absolutely non-standardized order. This rhyme is an element of combinatorial poetics and modernist trends in creativity, therefore, examples of pantorhyme cannot be found in classical works. However, it has become especially popular among rap artists, where you can find good examples: popped in for a visit, as to the south, but got stuck. / Let's keep quiet, since the language is volapuk, newspeak. (Volapyuk - rubbish; Newspeak - the official language of the ruling party in Orwell's novel "1984").

Tips for choosing rhymes

  • It's better to avoid using verbs in clauses. Although Pushkin himself in "The House in Kolomna" went against this rule - he, however, is excusable, but the work of a novice author with verbal consonances can be considered bad taste. nine0038
  • Experiments with inaccurate, poor, composite, internal and pantorhythms are best begun after at least some sufficient experience in the use of classical forms, sizes and clauses has been obtained.
  • For the correct selection of rhymes, the poet needs to say everything written aloud - not necessarily in public. If the clauses sound separately, but not in the line, then you can try to change the number of stops in the size, or even the entire size

    Thirty-three cows or Learning to compose poetry

    Yulia Kasparova

    “Thirty-three cows, a new verse was born…” Do you remember the song about the little poet? It is about games in rhyme that we will talk today. These games are not only fun. This is a means of developing both speech, and imagination, and non-standard creative thinking of the baby.

    In order to compose poetry, one must be able to observe, notice the brightest and most unusual things around, be able to choose expressive words, and, most importantly, one must be able to rhyme. And let the little "inspired rhymers" do not become great poets (although, who knows!), but they will get great pleasure from the very process of creativity, from the joy of creating their own poem. And what unusual and figurative poems written by a child can be! No wonder Korney Chukovsky said: “At the beginning of life, we are all poets, and only then we gradually begin to speak prose.” nine0003

    There is one more nuance. It is no secret that many modern children do not like to read poetry. But they love making them! So let's use this to grow a little writer into a great reader!

    POEMS AND BABY

    Starting to read nursery rhymes and nursery rhymes to a very small child, we are doing a great and important work. And it does not matter that the kid does not yet understand the meaning of what he read. It's not the importance. Reading, from early childhood, we discover for the child the beauty and melody of native speech, instill a love for the word, learn to understand rhyme and meter. A kid grown up on "quality" children's poems will most likely not lose interest in poetry in the future. In the first rhyming games, we play with the child intuitively, without even perceiving them as games. When reading a familiar rhyme, we stop at the end of the line, allowing the baby to pronounce the familiar word himself. And he does a great job with it. As the baby grows, his vocabulary grows. And if you have read and are reading a lot of different poems, a 2-3 year old child can already play the game "Tell me a word" with you. For this game, use unfamiliar quatrains with simple, easy-to-guess rhymes. Riddles are also good in which the answer is selected in rhyme. And do not rush to immediately answer for the baby. Let him find the right answer for himself. nine0003

    If you don't have a book with riddles or poems at hand, you can come up with pure rhymes on the go. They help the child feel the rhythm of the verse. I often play this game with my youngest daughter:

    - Cha-cha-cha, we were at…
    - Doctor! - joyfully picks up Masha.
    - Zha-zha-zha, they found in the forest ...
    - Hedgehog!
    - From-from-from, redhead purrs . ..
    - Cat!
    - Ib-ib-ib, grew up in the forest ...

    - Mib! - Here are those! The situation turned out to be not entirely clear to Masha, because we often say not "mushroom", but "fungus". So my daughter invented a word in rhyme, but it means absolutely nothing. And in order not to get any "mibs", select situations that are well understood by the baby, and then the word-guess will itself ask for a tongue. And then you can make it harder. And praise, be sure to praise in any case! Out-of-the-box thinking is great! Why shouldn't some "mibu" grow under the Christmas tree? Who knows...

    Writing is a wonderful activity on the way to kindergarten or standing in a long line. And time will help pass, and the benefits are undeniable. You can compose poetry just by looking around: what I see, I sing about. And by all means in turn: the line is mom, the line is baby.

    It's more fun:

    We're walking along the path
    We won't fall for anything!
    A bee flies over the flower.
    My bangs prevent me from looking…

    PLAYING POEM

    Abracadabra

    Sometimes a child can't rhyme words. Well, he does not understand what rhyme is, and that's it. Try to do the following. Take some well-known poem and retell it "in your own words." For example, like this:

    The hostess left the bunny.

    Bunny stayed in the rain.

    I couldn't get off the bench,

    I was soaked to the skin. nine0020

    Ask your child: is this a poem? No! And why? Yes, because there is no rhyme in it. Now we rearrange the words, and everything falls into place. Find rhyming words with your baby: bunny hostess, couldn’t get wet. Play this rearrangement game, first "spoiling" the poem, and then correcting it.

    Applause

    For this game, we need our hands. You name a couple of words, and the child should clap his hands if there is a rhyme, and raise his hands up if the words do not rhyme. Sand-sock: bang! Table-chair: handles up! Such a game will very quickly help the baby figure out what's what. nine0003

    “The fourth extra”

    You name four words, and the child must choose one that does not rhyme with the other three. For example, in the chain "mimosa, birch, goat, splinter", an extra word, of course, "goat"

    Rhymed lotto

    For children who can read, you can make a loto. Take a stack of thick paper sheets "for notes" and write one word in large on each. Choose them so that every 3-4 words rhyme. We start playing. We shuffle the cards and distribute 10 cards to the players. The beginner of the game puts any of his cards on the table and reads the word aloud. Each player chooses from his cards those where there are words that rhyme with the one named. Then the player next in a circle puts his card on the table and reads the word, and the rest lay out cards with rhyming words, if they have them. The first person to run out of cards wins. nine0003

    “Catch the rhyme”

    You throw a ball to the baby and say a word, and he must return the ball to you and answer with a rhyme: clock-mustache, squirrel-plate, etc. You can throw a ball and rhyme one word, making a chain: cat-mouse-spoon-brooch-okroshka, etc. And it doesn't matter if it doesn't work right away. A little practice, and wonderful and unusual rhymes will appear. By the way, such games are much more fun to play with a company of kids, for example, at a children's birthday party or while walking. And we often play with the whole family in the car, choosing a word and coming up with rhymes to it in turn until someone's imagination is exhausted. In such a family competition, it is appropriate to name not very used words, such as a yoke or a grip, and at the same time explain their meaning to the child. But dad is not very good at rhyming, and he increasingly chooses wonderful rhymes like "brother-cousin." nine0003

    "Nonsense-Nonsense-Nonsense"

    Here's a game for older kids. After all, it often happens that moms and dads do not know what to play with a grown child. But our little schoolchildren are eager to play and communicate with us no less than kids.

    The game "Nonsense" came from my childhood. There was a period when we enthusiastically played it not only at breaks, but also, what is there to hide, in the classroom. I think that this game is familiar to you. Several players (you can have two, but the more the better) each take a piece of paper. Closing your sheet with your hand from prying eyes, write any phrase on top, for example: "Once under our desk" or "Once, in the cold winter season." Then they fold the sheet so that what is written is closed, and pass it around, telling the neighbor the last word in the line. Now the task of the players is to write the next line in rhyme with the previous one. Then the sheet is folded again and passed on. This continues until the end of the sheet or until you get bored. Then the sheet is unfolded and the written aloud is read. All the players roll with laughter, because they get meaningless, but very funny combinations. Well, that's why she's a jerk. And if you dare to play this game with the whole family on a rainy autumn evening, you will be in a good mood, despite the dull weather. nine0003

    Miracle charades

    Our next game is charades. In them, the given word is divided into several parts, each of which is an independent word: beans, top-ears, etc. In old children's magazines, this useful game was given a lot of space. And for good reason. Charades are a wonderful task for ingenuity and erudition. Guessing such riddles helps to better understand the native language and its diversity. And we will try to compose charades, and then make them to dad. Let him break his head! Charades have many varieties. The most popular among them is an anagram. In it, the word is found by rearranging the letters. Here is an example:

    To the seas and oceans
    I release fountains.
    On the contrary, you will write -
    You will hear me in the clock.

    (kit tick)

    In order to write an anagram, you first need to pick up a couple of words, and then come up with an explanation poem based on it. There are a great many such pairs, but here's a start for you: pump-pine, linden-saw, clever-tsunami, bank-boar, entrance-inhale, midge-chamomile, park-carp, hair-word. nine0003

    Shall we play Burim?

    In addition to the described games, there are others that came to us from ancient times, when any well-educated person was a bit of a poet. Such poems were written in the circle of close people, used as gifts to friends.

    “Burime (from French bout - end, rime - rhyme) is a fun game, a poetic task where you need to write poems to pre-set rhymes. It is interesting to play it with the whole family, reading out their works in turn. And this is not just entertainment, but a useful activity that develops creativity, a sense of humor, and expands vocabulary. Rhymes for burime should be unexpected and a little strange. The main requirement for the future poem: common sense and humor. For kids, use simpler rhymes: bunny-flock-box-bun. Here's what might happen:

    A hare came out into the clearing.
    He sees that there are a flock of titmouse.
    He opened his box,
    Gave a roll to the tits and poppy seeds.

    And then it can be more difficult: in the zoo-business-hot-chalk. It is interesting to play burim using rhymes from famous children's poems. Come on, let's try to compose our own version of the chain: half-paw-throw-good or in a mink-shut up-peel-candles. And you can play "guessing games" by asking the baby to remember in which poem these rhymes were found. nine0003

    One of the varieties of burime is monorim (from Greek monos - one and French rime - rhyme). In this game, one base word is taken, and the entire poem must be built on the same rhyme. You can come up with lines in turn. For example, we choose the word "duck" and compose the following poem:

    There once was a duck in the world,
    She loved forget-me-nots.
    They bloomed in her stomach.
    And this, you know, is not a joke!
    Once a visit for a minute…

    … well, and so on.

    Surely the kid will be interested in composing an acrostic with you. This is a poem in which each line begins with a certain letter. If you read these letters in a row, you should get some word:

    Little girl
    Eats apricots
    Playful squirrel.
    Oh, he doesn't listen to me!

    Try to play with the name of the baby and his friends, or come up with an acrostic gift for dad or grandma. nine0003

    A type of acrostic is a tautogram in which all words begin with the same letter. This is where a large vocabulary is needed:

    A purple petal flies,
    A light summer piece .
