Rhyming is an important skill to develop and learn. It teaches children how language works, assists them to experience the rhythm of language as well as hear sounds within words and play with sounds in language (phonological awareness). When children become familiar with rhyming, they learn to predict a similar word- a skill for reading. Engaging in rhyming activities also offer opportunities to learn about groups of words such a hat, mat, cat, rat (pre literacy skills).
