Poems & Rhyme Activities for Preschoolers
Transform quiet moments into concentration-building moments with interactive poems and nursery rhymes that get kids thinking, speaking, and shining.
When a child discovers they can make their voice bigger, their movements bolder, and their personality shine through a simple poem, something wonderful happens. Foster these opportunities with our rhymes and poems for kids. Along with our ever-popular Rhyming Corners, your kids will pop with ideas and curiosity.
Great for family poetry night, classroom morning meetings, play dates, and recording videos for grandparents.

Zigzag Froggy
Poem about a froggy whose legs can’t go straight. They can only go sideways, which poses problems for him in keeping up with his friends and feeling like everyone else. He shares how much he tries and closes with the sentiment that not all is bad when you’re a Zigzag Froggy.

“Rhyming Corner is a favorite when I conduct workshops with the Beat Children’s Theatre. For me, it was wonderful to see the less outspoken kids really blossom during this activity.
Each of these lessons is ready to go! You can either show my Rhyming Corner videos for your children to have a Brain Break, or as a support to another lesson plan. Or you can access printed resources and conduct your own Rhyming Corners.”
