Ringa Ringa With Animals

There is famous rhyme-play by the name Ringa Ringa that most children are fond of. This activity is an imagination of playing the same with animals.


I ask my child to arrange all the animals in a round (with little help from me of course). Now holding two animals she moves her hand while I sing the rhyme:


Ringa ringa roses

Pocket full of roses

Asha Busha

All fall down


The moment I say fall down, she yells out 'damma' and throws around all the animals.


Next, she asks me to repeat the play after arranging all the animals back in their positions in a circle.
