Language is musical.
Every language has a unique pattern and rhythm.
Reciting Nursery Rhymes helps you learn that pattern. It also helps pronounciation. This Spring I have mounted a special Nursery Rhyme Display outside my house (Jumble House) in Castel Rigone, Umbria to encourage local children to enjoy having fun learning and using English.
Look at this one :
Hickory Dickory Dock.
The mouse ran up the clock.
The clock struck one.
Dong!
The mouse ran down.
Hickory Dickory Dock.
Tick. Tock.
