• Mother Goose nursery rhymes are great fun to
share with children and an important part of
childhood for children all over the world.
• They’re the rhymes many of us got to know and
love as babies and preschoolers and they're still
great fun to share with kids today.
• But here's the thing: these rhymes are not only fun,
they're also really important for our children's
cognitive development.
6. 6
• Nursery rhymes are really important because
they're great stimulators of phonological
awareness, a skill which is important for learning
to read later on. They also expose children to
language and ideas that they might not come
across in other places but the main thing is
phonological awareness.
• And here's another important but little-known
fact: phonological awareness develops
naturally without explicit teaching if you read to
your child and play around with nursery rhymes
when they're very young.

Origin of Mother Goose Nursery Rhymes
• Over the last fifty years, various people have tried
to trace the mother goose rhymes back to their
origins. What they’ve found is that the nursery
rhymes, songs and stories which have for the last
two hundred or so years been associated with
Mother Goose had their origins in much older
stories and rhymes.
• These stories and rhymes were handed down
orally from one generation to the next but,
because they were never written down, they
changed quite a lot over the years.

Origin of Mother Goose Nursery Rhymes cont…
• Sometimes the changes were accidental and
sometimes the stories were intentionally adapted
to suit the purposes of the storyteller, to suit his
audience or to reflect events that were
happening at the time.
• Some of the rhymes weren’t written for children at
all but for adults. Some of the tales were blended
with parts of other stories to form new ones so that
it's almost impossible to work out where the
original tale began and what format it took.

• The Mother Goose nursery rhymes we
know today come from two main
sources: a book published in France in
1697 and a book published in England in
about 1765.
• In 1697, French writer, CHARLES PERRUALT,
published a collection of fairy tales called
'Histoires ou Contes du Temps passé,
avec des moralités' which translates as
'Tales of Long Ago, with Morals'.
10. 10
• The book’s frontispiece (left) shows an illustration of
an old woman spinning and telling stories with the
words 'Contes de ma Mere l'Oye' (Tales of My
Mother the Goose.)
• The book contained the following stories:
Cinderella
The Sleeping Beauty in the Wood
Bluebeard
Little Red Riding Hood
Puss in Boots
The Little Tom Thumb
The Faeries
Ricky of the Tuft
11. 11
• The stories were an instant success and Perrault
went on to write three more:
Donkey Skin
Ludicrous Wishes
Griselda
• The stories were translated into English and
published in 1729 by Robert Samber. The English
versions were also popular and, of course, still are
today.
12. 12
• In 1765, English publisher John Newbery, adopted
the Mother Goose name for a collection of mostly
traditional rhymes which he called Mother Goose's
Melody: or Sonnets for the Cradle.
• The book was immediately popular and
the Mother Goose name started to become
associated more with nursery rhymes than with
fairy tales, in English at least.
• Mother Goose's Melody contained 51 rhymes,
described by Newbery as "the most celebrated
Songs and Lullabies of the old British Nurses".
13. 13
• This book is important for two reasons: first, because
it contained so many rhymes and second,
because pretty much every edition of Mother
Goose rhymes since has been influenced by it.
• The book was so incredibly popular and printers,
publishers and all sorts of people in the literary
world caught on quickly with the result that other
collections of Mother Goose nursery rhymes began
to appear almost immediately.
• And the name ‘Mother Goose’ has been
associated with children's poetry ever since!

Edward Lear
(12 May 1812 – 29 January 1888)
As an author, he is known principally for his popular
nonsense collections of poems, songs, short stories,
botanical drawings, recipes and alphabets.

The Owl and the Pussy cat went to Sea
In a beautiful pea-green boat,
They took some honey, and plenty of money
Wrapped up in a five-pound note.
The Owl looked up to the stars above,
And sang to a small guitar,
“O lovely Pussy, O Pussy my love,
What a beautiful Pussy you are,
You are.
You are!
What a beautiful Pussy you are!”
32. 32
Pussy said to the Owl, "You elegant fowl!
How charmingly sweet you sing!
O let us be married! too long we have tarried:
But what shall we do for a ring?"
They sailed away, for a year and a day,
To the land where the Bong-Tree grows
And there in a wood a Piggy-wig stood
With a ring at the end of his nose,
His nose,
His nose,
With a ring at the end of his nose.
33. 33
"Dear Pig, are you willing to sell for one shilling
Your ring?" Said the Piggy, "I will."
So they took it away, and were married next day
By the Turkey who lives on the hill.
They dined on mince, and slices of quince,
Which they ate with a runcible spoon;
And hand in hand, on the edge of the sand,
They danced by the light of the moon,
The moon,
The moon,
They danced by the light of the moon.
