The rhyming game

Try this exercise along with The Rhyming Book to enforce the concept of rhyming for children. By thinking of words that rhyme and articulating them into a sentence, children practise listening and language skills together.

What this activity will develop:
Listening, language and thinking skills

What you'll need:

  • Imagination

What to do:
Ask your child to choose two rhyming words and make a nonsense sentence from them. For example, your child might choose 'bear' and 'hair' and say, 'If I had a bear, I'd lose my hair'. Let your child make several nonsense rhymes.
