Importance of Rhyme

Rhyme is a great way to teach sounds, build language, and get kids to think critically. Once children are able to read, books that rhyme are predictable and are easier to read. This builds confidence in their ability to read and makes the experience of reading more enjoyable.

You can begin teaching your child to rhyme between the ages 3 and 4.
