Oral Rhyming Games

Nonsense Word Fun – Nothing seems more silly than making up words! Little ones LOVE when adults use nonsense words to make rhymes – it’s so fun and silly! Invite your child to play a game. Say, “Let’s see how many words I can rhyme with ball! If you hear a silly nonsense word, say THAT’S SILLY! Here we go! Small, tall, fall, gall, lall, wall, mall, zall, etc.” Invite your child to brainstorm silly nonsense words to practise with too!

Rhyming I Spy – Invite your child to look around the room and find an object that rhymes with wall, or clock, or door, or light!

Rhyming Quick Draw – Draw one quick pictrure on paper for your child to see. For example, you could draw a cat. Then invite your child to guess what rhyme you will draw next. Mat, bat or rat? This game encourages children to continue brainstorming rhyming words!
