Nursery rhymes have existed for over many hundreds of years ago. In fact, the first English collections, Tommy Thumb’s Song Book, and its sequel were published 1744!
These rhymes evolved not as fancy songs but each had a specific purpose. There were lullabies meant to put young children to sleep; songs that taught moral values; the days of the week; counting, and so on…they served to educate and entertain.
