Poetry is valuable for stimulating the young child’s brain growth. Combine poetry with fun movements and you have an effective way to actively involve children in learning about manners. What fun your children will have as they learn about saying “please” and “thank you,” sharing, technology etiquette, working in groups, table manners, and many other manners-based situations. Each rhyme is filled with movement suggestions to keep your children engaged and active. Plug these cross-curricular rhymes into your daily routine for fun enrichment during gym, science, math, social studies, or language art lessons. They’ll transform your classroom lessons into live action!
