Rhyming poems for kids are a wonderful way to introduce children to the world of poetry while entertaining them. These poems often feature amusing narratives, playful language, and a rhythm that captivates young minds.
Some examples of short, funny rhyming poems for kids include:
"Little Boy Blue" by Darren Sardelli, which humorously describes a boy who sneezes on nursery rhyme characters.
"Eletelephony" by Laura Elizabeth Richards, a playful poem about an elephant trying to use a telephone.
"Row, Row, Row Your Boat", a classic rhyming poem with a silly variation about seeing a crocodile.

3. Snowball
I made myself a snowball As
perfect as could be.I thought I'd
keep it as a pet And let it sleep
with me.
I made it some pajamasAnd a
pillow for its head.Then last night it
ran away,But first it wet the bed.
4. In the sky so high and wide,A rainbow forms with
colors bright.Red, orange, yellow, green,The
prettiest rainbow ever seen.
Blue, indigo, violet too,All the colors just for
you.Stretching wide across the sky,Like a colorful
bridge up high.
When it rains and sun shines through,Look up
high, it might be true.The rainbow's smile, so pure
and clear,Bringing joy and magic near.
So next time you see a rainbow's hue,Remember
the colors, all so true.Nature's beauty, oh so
grand,In the rainbow's smile, take a stand.
The Rainbow's
Smile
5. The Moon
The moon has a face like the clock in the
hall;She shines on thieves on the garden
wall,On streets and fields and harbour
quays,And birdies asleep in the forks of the
trees.
The squalling cat and the squeaking
mouse,The howling dog by the door of the
house,The bat that lies in bed at noon,All love
to be out by the light of the moon.
But all of the things that belong to the
dayCuddle to sleep to be out of her way;And
flowers and children close their eyesTill up in
the morning the sun shall arise.
6. The Crocodile
How doth the little crocodile
Improve his shining tail,And pour the
waters of the NileOn every golden
scale!
How cheerfully he seems to grin,How
neatly spreads his claws,And
welcomes little fishes in,With gently
smiling jaws!
7. Snowball
I made myself a snowball As
perfect as could be.I thought I'd
