Let’s have fun with a silly rhyme about a boy named John! John went to bed with his socks on. Can you imagine that? He had one shoe off and one shoe on! Isn’t that funny? Let’s say it together:
Diddle, diddle, dumpling, my son John
Went to bed with his stockings on;
One shoe off and one shoe on,
Diddle, diddle, dumpling, my son John.
Now, let’s say it again! It’s fun to repeat:
Diddle, diddle, dumpling, my son John
Went to bed with his stockings on;
One shoe off and one shoe on,
Diddle, diddle, dumpling, my son John.
Here’s another rhyme about Little Boy Blue. He has a special job to do. Let’s find out what happens:
Little Boy Blue, come blow your horn;
The sheep’s in the meadow, the cow’s in the corn.
Where is the boy who looks after the sheep?
He’s under the haystack, fast asleep.
Oh no! Little Boy Blue is sleeping when he should be working! Let’s say it again to remember:
Little Boy Blue, come blow your horn;
The sheep’s in the meadow, the cow’s in the corn.
Where is the boy who looks after the sheep?
He’s under the haystack, fast asleep.
