Rhyming for preschool
15 Fun Rhyming Activities for Preschool Kids
- Share
From an early age, children are attracted to the rhythmic sounds of poems, songs, chants, and stories that rhyme.
But rhyming for preschoolers is much more than just delightful fun and is an essential part of their development.
Why is Rhyming Important for Preschoolers?
Rhyming is a key pre-reading skill leading into kindergarten and first grade.
The ability to detect rhyming sounds within words and being able to manipulate them are both aspects of phonemic awareness, which is a building block of reading development.
One important aspect of learning to read is the recognition of word families or those words that end in the same sounds.
For example, if children know that “school,” “cool,” and “tool” all rhyme, they often have an easier time learning to read other words that end with that same “-ool” pattern.
How Do You Teach Rhyming to Preschoolers?
Rhyming activities for early years incorporate two important features: listening for the rhymes in the ending sounds (also called “rimes”) and producing new rhyming words (real or pretend).
Exposure to rhyming sounds on a regular basis is an essential part of learning the skills. Kids must play with rhyme, talk about rhyming sounds, sing rhyming songs, and make up new rhyming words!
15 Rhyming Activities for Preschoolers
Activities that reinforce the ability to rhyme are built upon literature, songs and games.
Here are some rhyming activities for preschoolers to do at home or at school. Have fun with the concept!

1. Rhyming Books
Many authors are known specifically for their rhyming books. Other authors sometimes surprise us and write an occasional story in a rhyming format. Here are several popular choices:
- Giles Andreae – Giraffes Can’t Dance, Down by the Cool of the Pool , and others
- Nick Bland – “Bear” series of rhyming books
- Anna Dewdney – “Llama Llama” series
- Julia Donaldson – “The Gruffalo” series and many other titles
- Dr.
Seuss – The Cat in the Hat, Hop on Pop, and so many more - Nancy Shaw – Sheep in a Jeep and others in the “Sheep” series
2. Nursery Rhymes
For generations, parents and teachers have used nursery rhymes as a way to entertain and teach rhyme.
Although these are often sung to a tune, nursery rhymes can also be chanted, as well. These are some favourites:
- 1, 2, Buckle My Shoe
- Hickory, Dickory, Dock
- Itsy Bitsy Spider
- Jack and Jill
- Little Jack Horner
- Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star
Here are the lyrics of 40 classic preschool songs.
3. Rhyming Songs
Singing fun songs is another good way to listen to and enjoy rhyming. Some favourites include:
- Five Green Speckled Frogs
- Down by the Bay
- Five Little Ducks
- The Ants Go Marching
4. I Spy With My Little Eye
Play a game of I Spy With My Little Eye to teach rhyming.
Share an example to show the kids how this works.
- Decide on something in the room, like “clock,” as the target word.
- The task of the person who is “it” is to think of a word in their minds that rhymes with that as the clue: I spy with my little eye something that rhymes with “rock”.
- The other players then look around the area for objects that rhyme with “rock,” (block, crock, flock, lock, sock) until they guess the correct word, “clock.”
Another way to play this game is for a child to say, I spy with my little eye something that ends with “-ock” . And the other players then guess objects accordingly.
5. Telephone Game
Play the Telephone Game, also called Broken Telephone.
Discuss with kids what a “full sentence” is – someone or something does a type of action (subject, verb, object). For example, “The cat sat on the mat” is a full sentence, while “Cat mat” is not.
Also, talk about which words rhyme in the example.
To play the game:
- Children sit in a line or circle.
- The first person whispers a rhyming sentence, “The cat sat on the mat,” in the next person’s ear, and so on, down the line or around the circle.
- The last person says the sentence out loud, and giggles could follow when the ending sentence is much different than it began.
For a group that is just beginning to learn about rhyme, the adult could be the first to whisper the rhyming sentences.
6. From My Window Game
Practise rhyming skills with a fun travel game.
When kids see something out the window of the vehicle, they state its name and then words (real or pretend) that rhyme.
For example, “cow” followed by “how, now, jow, bow, gow, zow.” Remember that pretend rhyming words have as much value.
7. Clean-Up Rhyming Challenge
During clean-up time kids are challenged to name a rhyming word for each item they pick up to put away: book/look, block/frock, car/tar, and so forth.
8. Body Parts Rhyming
Teach body awareness and rhyming with this body parts activity.
The leader points to a body part, such as “nose.” Instead of calling out what that is, the other players try to come up with words that rhyme, such as “rose.”
9. Colours Rhyming
A person who is “it” points to a coloured object or holds up a colour card, such as “red.” Instead of naming the colour, the other players are challenged to name rhyming words, such as “bed.”
10. Rhyming Names
Kids are challenged to think of names that rhyme with their own. These could be real names or just random words.
For the day, their name is then a combination of the two: Ken-Ben, Terri-Mary, Doug-Pug, Jan-Tan.
11. Numbers Rhyme
The leader writes or holds up a number card, such as a 2. Instead of calling out the number, the other players must name words that rhyme, such as “boo.”
12. Jump Rope Rhymes
Playing jump rope games with rhymes is another favourite childhood activity.
These include “Miss Mary Mack, Mack, Mack,” “Teddy Bear, Teddy Bear,” and “Down in the Valley Where the Green Grass Grows.”
13. Make it 3
Call out two words that rhyme and then the children name the third. For example, the teacher/parent says “dive-alive” and kids add “hive.”
14. Odd Word Out
Turn the previous activity around. Name a group of three words, in which just two of them rhyme.
Kids must name the one word that does NOT rhyme with the others.
15. Good Night, Sleep Tight
At home, join your child in a rhyming goodnight ritual. As they say “Goodnight” to the various objects in their room, they try to name a rhyming word (real or pretend).
For example, “Goodnight bear-share” or “Goodnight drum-tum.”
As children progress from activities that are fully verbal to those in written form, they eventually notice that many rhyming words end with the same letters but some of them do not!
For example “boo” and “true” rhyme but vary in the spelling pattern.
Assure them that those are still rhyming words but that in the English language, combinations of different letters can make the same sounds.

1. Speech warm-up
Dictionary exercise: pronounce intonation, highlighting the highlighted word in turn:
We are playing with words - we compose together,
We play with words - we compose together ,
Our meetings are good, we have fun from the heart!
We play with words - we compose together,
Our meetings are good , have fun from the heart!

And learn new ones:
Buying a parrot,

There was a drama at the ball:
Noble Cavalier
From under the nose of a noble lady
Stole one eclair.
And another eclair,
And another eclair,
And one more eclair -
Here's your cavalier.
(Peter Sinyavsky)
2. Speech situation nine0582
Conversation
Educator: Have you ever tried to become an echo? How does echo respond to questions? I'll ask, "What time is it now?" And is it for me?
Children: An hour! Hour!
Educator: That's right, "Hour!" That's how you are: if you become an echo, then answer the questions as it is. And to make it more fun, clap your hands when answering. The answer is two claps at the same time.
Caretaker (children)
Get ready, kids! (ra-ra)
The game is on! (ra-ra) nine0003
Don't be sorry for your hands (lei-lei)
Hand clap more fun (lei-lei)
What time is it now (hour-hour)
What time will it be in an hour (hour-hour)
And it's not true, there will be two (two-two)
Think, think, head (wah-wah)

Do not get tired of answering (chat-chat) when answering “no” fine
Please be quiet (-) nine0003
Game over.
And those who have "blundered" and gave their phantom to the presenter are waiting for a fun task to be completed.
Educator: Since ancient times, people, writing proverbs, riddles, tongue twisters, tried to decorate these works of oral folk art, rhyming the ends of lines.
Thanks to rhyme, verses are collapsible. Rhyme is when words end the same way. For example, a cat - a spoon, a bump-mouse, a spruce-strand, a rose-mimosa, a sideboard-stool, an owl-head, a river-stove, etc. These words sound like the last syllables. Such ends of words are called rhymes. nine0003
Rhyme - consonance of the ends of poetic lines.
After that, the children find the rhyme in the poems "Firs" and "Vanechka the Shepherd"
Eli
Fir-trees on the edge
To the top of the sky -
I listen, they are silent,
Looking at grandchildren.
And grandchildren - Christmas trees,
Fine needles -
At the forest gate
Dance.
(Irina Tokmakova)
Vanechka is a shepherd nine0582
Sheep are standing in the meadow
Wool rolled into rings,
And plays for the sheep
A little man on the flute.
This is Vanya, the shepherd!
He has good hearing.
He hates the wolf too,
He won't hurt a lamb,
No matter what.
Vanya be a violinist! (Yunna Moritz)
Think of a rhyme game
Educator: Guys, I have a rhyming ball in my hands. Let's play rhyming words. nine0003
I give a word, throw a ball, and whoever catches picks up a rhyme.
Friend (bow), crow (crown), business (boldly), shed (loaf), house (gnome), sleep (ringing), pillow (frog, bun, cheesecake, toy, girlfriend), path (bast basket, potatoes , cover, okroshka), pencil (jumble, hut, gouache, mirage, crew) ...
Match-up game
Educator: Now look carefully at the pictures in front of you and find the words that rhyme with each other.
Educator: There is another game for you.
I will start poetry now
I will start and you will finish
answer in unison.
Gray wolf in dense forest
I met a red-haired ... (fox).
Where did the sparrow dine?
In the zoo with ... (animals).
A cock with a prickly hedgehog
Cut fat with a sharp ... (knife).
Not scratchy, light blue,
Hung in the bushes ... (hoarfrost).
In winter, there are apples on the branches! nine0003
Get it together!
And suddenly - apples fluttered.
After all, this is ... (bullfinches).
Game "Suggest a word" based on a poem by John Ciardi.
About amazing birds
Outdoor
passerby
I saw yesterday.
He was carrying a box,
On drawer
Written: “Game”.
I am two blocks away
followed him
(Believe me, I'm not lying).
Finally nine0003
Asked him:
How to play
In game?
he smiled
Polite,
Then he answered me:
Sure
What is a game
You haven't met yet.
Two birds
Amazing
Available in my box.
And if you want,
That's with you
We will play together.
And so that we
We could start
You must remember nine0003
What is dissimilar
These birds
SIMILAR TAILS.
Catch
Such funny birds -
Very hard work.
No wonder people
Smart
Their rhymes
Name.
Indeed,
Nimble birds
From a large box
Suddenly started
Pull out
Top
Behind the word, the word.
One got
The word NAIL, nine0003
Other immediately -
GUEST and CANE.
One got
Word SAD,
Another phrase:
LET IT GO!
One got
Word ELEPHANT,
Around the age of 4-5, children discover that many words sound coherent and rhyme with each other.
Speech games, including rhymes, not only teach writing techniques, but also replenish the active vocabulary.
In addition, it is very fun to rhyme in one line or even a poetic work of words that are not related in meaning! After all, you can make sense. For example, what does “cat” have to do with it when we said “spoon”? This is how funny poems are born...
Play rhyming with your children. And we will suggest some simple but exciting games for given rhymes.
“Secret transmission”. Pick up the ball and agree with the child that you are scouts. One scout passes a secret packet (ball) with a password to another. The second scout must say a response - a rhyme to the password, and then come up with his own password to transmit the secret package. You can complicate the game by connecting more participants to it, and even increasing the pace - for example, “get on your nerves”, counting out loud “one ... two ... three!”. nine0003
“Rhymes to the theme”. Prepare two jars or boxes and a few chips.
Agree on what topic you are rhyming about, let's say "nature". Who remembered the rhyme - he puts a chip in his jar. Bear-bump. Bush crunch. Who is bigger?
“Talking pictures”. Looking at illustrations in any books, choose pictures and come up with rhymes for them. Complicate the game: think and say a rhyme aloud, and let the child find in the picture the object for which you chose the rhyme. nine0003
“Rhyme in image”. Fantasize! Depict rhyming objects, animals, phenomena with the help of plasticine sculptures, applications, crafts. Create an exhibition of rhymes - and make riddles for your guests! For those guests who find more rhymes at your exhibition, prepare special prizes.
“Rhyme one, rhyme two, dizzy”. Come up with children with poems, the beginning of which is given only in the first line. Some rhymes for words are easy to pick up, but fitting them into the rhythm of a poem is a more difficult task. Develop along with rhyme, and your baby will never have problems with rich figurative speech! nine0003
Poems are the first literary works that children get to know.
From birth, babies were always sung lullabies, told nursery rhymes, jokes. Our ancestors did not know the mechanism of the influence of poetic forms on mental development. It was intuitive. Mothers lulled newborns with lullabies and entertained them with jokes. Scientists of the 20th century proved the influence of early communications with a child on his speech development.
Children who were read books from birth began to talk earlier than those who were left to themselves. nine0003
He hears his mother's speech, gets used to it, eventually recognizes individual words, feels the rhythm of speech. Emotionally colored speech attracts attention.
All this is of great importance for the formation of his own speech after a short time. Rhymed nursery rhymes and jokes are perceived best. Children love rhythm and expressive reading. Words that are similar in pronunciation are easier to remember due to associative links. Parents are surprised when at an early age children immediately memorize poems.
This is a very good brain training, you need to support the kids in every way to repeat, and later - to the selection of rhymes. It's fun and most importantly, it's useful. nine0003
Rhymes develop phonemic awareness, auditory perception and language sense.
Rhymes for children up to 3 years old
Their baby begins to distinguish from speech quite early. Reading must be accompanied by facial expressions. Rhymes should be simple: bull - barrel, cat - mouth, ball - jump .
Very useful for the formation of a sense of rhythm are such rhymes that you can choose yourself for almost any action:
- sha-sha-sha-sha-sha, the porridge was good ; nine0003
- zhu-zhu-zhu-zhu-zhu, I'm friends with the guys ;
- goo-goo-goo-goo, I'll run away quickly etc.
The meaning here is secondary, the main thing is rhythmic speech and repetitive syllables. With older children, on the basis of such “tambourines”, you can come up with games for the first versification.
Rhyme for preschool children contributes to faster memorization.
You can use short poems for educational and educational purposes. For example, learn the colors of a traffic light and their meanings, the names of animals, fruits, vegetables, etc. With the help of poetic texts, you can memorize almost any material. nine0003
How to explain the concept of rhyme to a child
Rhyme is a combination of the melody of words that have the same stressed vowels. In children's poems, common exact rhymes are usually used: sun - window, cat - mouth, bridge - growth , etc. More complex, original rhymes are found in older poetry.
Types of rhymes
- Men's. The stress falls on the last syllable (home - young) .
- Women's. The stress is on the penultimate syllable (gold - rich) .
- Dactylic. The stress falls on the third syllable from the end of the word (pothole - depression) .
- Hyperdactylic.
The stress falls on the fourth or subsequent syllable (stretch out - touch) .
To explain to a child what rhyme is, one can give an example familiar to many from the fairy tale “Dunno in the Sunny City”.
Recall that the main character decided to start writing poetry and picked up rhymes for words. The poet explained to Dunno that words should end the same way. As a result, Dunno rhymed "stick" and "herring". nine0003
Thus, it is not enough for words to have the same ending.
Definition for children! Rhyme - these are words similar in sound: Masha - porridge, nut - seagull, concrete - token and others.
Words do not have to end in the same way - the main thing is that they are combined with each other (icy - does not go) .
The sequence of teaching preschoolers to compose rhyming texts
Preschoolers from 3 to 5-6 years old have a penchant for versification. They really like the combination of words, word creation is actively manifested when children come up with their own words that are understandable only to a narrow circle of people.
nine0003
Verbal experiments should never be interfered with. On the contrary, you need to support the child in finding rhymes and writing. This forms a sense of the beauty of speech, the native language and develops the imagination.
The formation of interest in poetic texts will help the child to better understand and perceive poetry in the future.
Stages of teaching rhyming texts to preschoolers
1. Children need to be introduced to the algorithm for creating rhyming text. First, they are introduced to the concept of rhyme and its location (at the end of the line). nine0003
An approximate algorithm that can be offered to a preschooler from 4 years old:
1) Once upon a time...
2) Who or what was their name...
3) What did you do?
4) Conclusion. Everything that can be said about the object.
The algorithm changes depending on the theme of the poem and the objectives of the lesson.
2. Creation of a simple algorithmic poem with an adult.
3. The child tries to come up with a short poetic text on his own. You can’t push a preschooler, make fun of his attempts or put too much pressure. The process should captivate the baby. If he fails, an adult helps. Sooner or later, the child himself will learn to pick up rhymes. nine0003
Burime: examples of rhymes for children
Burime - composing poems on given rhymes. This literary game appeared in France in the 17th century. Entertainment quickly gained popularity. The nobles competed with each other in wit. Now this game is undeservedly forgotten.
Classic game rules:
Rhymes must be heterogeneous;
They must not be changed;
The theme of the poem is agreed in advance.
For children, of course, the game is adapted to the age and individual abilities. nine0003
Preschoolers can be encouraged to write their own poems.
A couple of rhymes are selected, then with these words you need to come up with sentences. For example, take a pair of "nibbles - crawls" .
First, the child comes up with the first sentence. Usually it turns out a simple non-common sentence like "The puppy nibbles." An adult with leading questions helps to complete the sentences. Questions might be:
How is the puppy feeling?
What do puppies usually chew on? nine0003
Where is the puppy chewing?
Work with the second sentence continues on the same principle.
Something like this may turn out:
A cheerful puppy chews a bone loudly,
The gray mouse quietly crawls into its house.
A child will remember such poems of his own composition for a long time.
Rhyming games for preschoolers
Preschool children learn everything through play. Classes for the selection of rhymes can be carried out not only at home. They can be used as a leisure activity on the road, on a walk or in a long queue. This will entertain the child and help the development of speech. nine0003
Rhymes for preschool children will be a great alternative to a tablet or cartoons.
1. The pictures show objects that rhyme with each other. The child must connect them with lines. You can make these tasks yourself or purchase a ready-made manual.
2. In kindergarten, and later in elementary school, funny riddles for children with answers in rhyme are widely used.
I am in a dense forest
I saw a red ... (fox).
Seeing the boy for the first time:
I ran across the clearing ... (bunny).
All girls and boys
3. The child is asked to find rhyming pairs among word chains.
Cat, house, mouth;
Sleep, drink, whale;
Shepherd, rooster, package.
4. A game for two or more children - come up with as many rhymes as possible for a word. The word must be short and known to all participants.
5. An adult pronounces repeated syllables. It stops when the child says a rhyme. Examples:
- ha-ha-ha-ha-ha - leg ;
- ba-ba-ba-ba-ba - trumpet ;
- la-la-la-la-la - yule .
Reading children's poems and their own first poems will contribute to the development of speech in preschoolers and develop creative abilities.

Match the rhyme
Ask your child to help write short rhymes. Say the words of the couplet, stopping at the last word. The last rhyme word is selected together with the baby (he needs to be offered a choice of 2 words).
nine0003
Where are you going, Marina?
In the forest where the ripe…
The poem offers a choice of berry names: “raspberries” and “blueberries”. If the child finds it difficult to make a choice, then the adult pronounces a couplet first with a non-rhyming word, and then with a rhyming one, inviting the child to choose the one that sounds better. When the rhyme word is chosen, the child repeats the rhyme on his own: “Where are you in a hurry, Marina? In the forest, where ripe raspberries.

"Help and deceiver"
Rhyme can be a help. By rhyme, you can guess, for example, what kind of animal it is.
Instead of wool, the needles are all over,
The enemy of mice is prickly ...
The beast wears a horn on its nose
And is called ...
Among the animals is reputed to be a king,
He is called fearless ...
A log floats along the river.
Oh, and it's furious!
Those who fell into the river,
Bit off their nose .
..
Can swim all day
In ice-cold water ...
He knows a lot about sheep
Ferocious gray ...
He is lucky on himself
Own house ...
And here are the verses with a rhyme-deceiver: one word is guessed, and the rhyme suggests a completely different one.
What the master says,
He will calmly repeat.
Ah yes voice, ah yes hearing!
What a smart girl…
Honey with raspberries is a dish
Food for...
I dig a hole day and night,
I don’t know the sun at all,
You won’t find my eyes…,
And my name is…
Underground, breaking through a hole,
Sleeping tired ...
Lives calmly, not in a hurry.
Wears a shield just in case.
On land and in water -
Everywhere it is its own,
Live at least three hundred years
Maybe ...
On two legs from all chases
The swift-footed one will rush off ...
Here, guys, miracles -
Brings honey to the hive ...
