The Rhyme Challenge is a fun way to introduce children and families to rhymes. Rhymes may be new to families or forgotten, and they require help to build up confidence to have a go themselves.
Young children learn best through seeing someone they know well doing things, and through repetition.
Rhymes can be shared almost anywhere - in the car or bus, the bath, in the supermarket. You can use rhymes during less popular activities to encourage children, for example, tidy up time, nappy changing, going to bed. Finally, rhymes are a great way to get
children started on their lifelong reading journey!
The challenge will take place in libraries, toddler groups and nurseries across the district.
Booking is essential. Contact your library direct to book.
Can’t make it to the library dates? Check with your local toddler group or nursery to see if they are taking the challenge. They can order packs via sandra.hodgson@bradford.gov.uk.
Complete the challenge and you can also be in with a chance to win this lovely Gruffalo story sack or one of these great nursery rhyme sets.
So what are you waiting for! Get singing, get rhyming, get talking, get reading....Want to watch the Rhymes? Watch this space……..Or listen to the rhymes here: Bolling Hall Library
