Nursery Rhymes

Whenever I see my little niece back at home, she would request to play "ring a ring a roses".
And she would always request: "Again! Again!" after playing
It's a children's game, where u hold each other hands and form a circle, and walk around the circle and singing the nursery rhyme. The rhyme goes like this:

“Ring a ring a roses
A pocket full of posies
Atishoo! Atishoo!
We all fall down!”

When the last phrase comes, all of us would jump down.
And everytime my little niece request: "Again! Again!", I would say: "HuH? Again? Very tired" haha...But always play with her at least 3 times a day.

Ahhh! Nursery rhymes to children is like pop songs to adults... haha... and it brings good memories of your childhood, especially when u get to play with someone. My favorite of all is "This little piggy" The rhyme goes like this:

"This little piggy went to market
This little piggy stayed at home
This little piggy had roast beef
This little piggy had none
And this little piggy cried,
'Wee! Wee! Wee! I can't find my way home!"

This game is played with your toes, picking the toes whenever each line is read. Everytime my mom would wiggle my little toes back then. And it's very ticklish and I giggled all the way uptil the last phrase.
It brings good memories =)
