Nursery rhymes and songs for letter R

Ring around the Rosie

Ring around the rosie,
A pocket full of posies.
Ashes, ashes,
We all fall down!

It’s Raining, It’s Pouring

It’s raining, it’s pouring,
The old man is snoring.
He went to bed and bumped his head
And couldn’t get up in the morning.

Round and Round the Garden

Round and round the garden,
Goes the teddy bear.
One step, two steps,
Tickle you under there!
Round and round the haystack,
Goes the little mouse.
One step, two steps,
To his little house!

Row, Row, Row Your Boat

Row, row, row your boat
Gently down the stream.
Merrily, merrily, merrily,
Life is but a dream.

Rub a Dub Dub

Rub a dub dub,
Three men in a tub.
And who do you think they be?
The butcher, the baker, the candlestick maker,
All put out to sea.

Roses are Red

Roses are red,
Violets are blue.
Sugar is sweet,
And so are you!

 How to assemble my Little Letter Books:

  • Print the document in color (if you desire) on cardstock.  Be sure to print pages 2-3 front to back (page 1 is my Terms of Use). You will need only one piece of paper.
  • Cut an even line across the center of the page.
  • Fold the two sheets to make a book. Make sure the cover is in front, and insert the other page inside.
  • Staple with a long arm stapler.
