Does your child have a favorite teddy bear? This week at Story Mix, we have a whole post devoted to these lovable dolls. Through the songs and rhymes, consonance and dissonance are incorporated, which help children hear the sounds letters and words make. This language technique then improves vocabulary and builds language. Children also develop creative thinking skills when using different words in the teddy bear book rhyme. This skill also helps them increase their word knowledge and get Ready to Read!
Teddy Bear Rhyme
This little teddy has a soft furry suit.
This little teddy is sweet and cute.
This little teddy is sassy and cross.
This little teddy thinks she’s the boss.
This little teddy likes berries and honey.
But when gets them on his face,
He looks very, very funny!
