Counting books for kids, for children 3-4-5-6 years old
Counting books for children 3 years old and 4 years old are short rhymes aimed at developing speech and memory. They can also be used in finger games. Such rhyming rhymes for children form the concept of rhyme and accustom them to the Russian language. Children's rhymes are aimed at better memorizing the poetic form of arithmetic operations (the well-known “One, two, three, four, five, the bunny went out for a walk...”).
In addition, nursery rhymes form in children the elementary concept of simple mathematical calculation. Counting rhymes are especially useful for children aged 4 years and for preschoolers, since it is in this form that they remember counting well. And it also trains your memory.

Description of counting rhymes for children 6–8 years old
The senior kindergarten group and the first grades of school are a time for interesting children's games. The guys choose a game on their own, spell out the rules, are divided into teams and/or choose a leader. You can't do without counting rhymes.
Counting books accompany many children's games, for example, tag
Educators and teachers learn and use counting rhymes with children at various routine moments.
- In GCD classes (direct educational activities) in kindergarten and lessons at school: FEMP (formation of elementary mathematical concepts)/mathematics,
- the world,
- literary reading.
You can learn rhyming rhymes with children aged 6–8 years in literary reading lessons
Table: examples of using counting rhymes in teaching children 6, 7, 8 years old
| Type/subject of counting rhymes | Usage |

Elimination Counters
Counting books for 5-year-old children already have a different meaning - the choice of who drives or who is eliminated from the game.

A selection of funny rhymes
Comic rhymes can be simple, four-line, or more complex, sometimes with a whole plot:
- Once upon a time there were three herrings: Kulya, Mulya and Balda. Kulya and Mulya slept together, and Balda slept alone.
- Koko-Moko gobbled up the eggs and didn’t say thank you, got on his horse and ran away. He comes back from the war. - Mom, where are my pants? And the pants on the street were pecked by chickens. The chicken went to the pharmacy and said: Ku-ka-re-ku! Give soap and perfume, So that the pe-tu-hi don't fight.
- On the road, with their legs twisted, yogis sat on nails. Thirty days without eating or drinking, You still have to drive.
- The cat Antipka lived with us, He got up from his bed at one o'clock. At two he was stealing sausages in the kitchen, at three he was eating sour cream from a bowl, at four he was washing his face, at five he was rolling on the rug, at six he was dragging herring from a tub, at seven he was playing hide and seek with the mice, at eight he was slyly narrowing his eyes, at nine he was eating and I listened to fairy tales, At TEN I went to the bed to sleep, Because I had to get up at AN O’clock.
With a centipede in the counting rhyme it is much easier to learn the boring rules of mathematics
Some of the most useful rhymes are mathematical ones: in addition to developing memory and rhythm, they actively help the child learn the “boring” laws of mathematics. For example:
- The centipede's legs hurt: Ten are aching and buzzing, Five are limping and hurting. Help the centipede count the sore legs.
- Once upon a time a vest had three loops and two cuffs. If you count them together, Three and two, of course, are five! But do you know what the secret is? The vest has no cuffs!
- Four pretenders walked along the path, along the path. And three potatoes passed by on peas. If you give each make-believe a potato for breakfast, then one of the make-believes will get what? Polka dots.
The cat is a frequent character in rhyming rhymes: she will play with the mouse, steal sour cream, and sometimes she takes up cooking herself.
The most popular characters in counting rhymes are animals. The humorous effect in these works is most often achieved by “sending” animals into human situations and the resulting incidents:
- One summer, Som rode along Onega in a cart. Instead of a horse - a crucian carp, He drove the cart into the mud. He gets stuck, asking for help, and scolds the crucian carp!
- One, two, three, four, five, the tiger went out for a walk. They forgot to lock him, One, two, three, four, five. He walks through the streets, doesn’t pester anyone, but for some reason people run away from the tiger. Who climbed a tree, Who hid behind a stall, Who ended up on the roof, Who climbed into a drain. And on the tree, like toys, two old ladies sat. The whole city was empty in an instant - After all, jokes with a tiger are dangerous. The tiger sees - the city is empty. “Let me go,” he thinks, “I’ll come back.” It’s more fun at the zoo, it’s always full of people!”
- The gray cat was baking pancakes, dropped the frying pan, and injured the devil's leg.
- Two bears were sitting on a linden branch, One was reading a newspaper, The other was kneading flour, One peek-a-boo, two peek-a-boo - Both plopped down in the flour.
- The pigs were dancing in the boat, They broke all their hooves, Inchik, brynchik-pok, A little friend came out.
Animals in nursery rhymes often find themselves in funny situations
Younger schoolchildren are quite capable of composing small funny rhymes on their own.
Fairy-tale plots and characters can be found in counting rhymes:
- A carriage was driving along the old bridge. The bridge collapsed, the carriage went to the bottom. I don’t feel sorry for the carriage, I don’t feel sorry for the bridge, But I feel sorry for the princess and the white horse.
- The fishermen brought the skinny pike from the river. The predatory pike is more terrible than the monster Kashchei. We gave her vegetables and thicker fatty cabbage soup. The pike slapped its tail, as if it had cracked a whip, and with such a strong blow it split the table into splinters.
- One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight, nine, ten. The king ordered me to be hanged. But the queen did not give it and hanged the king. The king hung, hung, hung, the wind blew, he flew off and flew into the trash heap. And in the trash heap lived Boris, the Chairman of Dead Rats, and his wife Larisa, a Wonderful Rat.
- Tili-tili-dots, the devil was riding on a barrel. The witch on the cart was cracking nuts. The devil fell from the barrel and hit the witch in the ear. The witch was a sneak and called the Brownie. The brownie blew the whistle, come out, my friend!
Fairy-tale characters are often the heroes of children's rhymes
Often among children's and teenagers' humorous rhymes there are everyday (everyday) ones - “on the topic of the day”:
- One, two, three - wipe your nose.
- One, two, three, four - We sat in the apartment, drank tea, ate rolls, forgot who we were sitting with.
- Fat Uncle Robinson was walking through the flea market from his payday, and from his payday at the flea market he bought himself an umbrella. The umbrella is cheap, three rubles, but so healthy, three people could hide under it!
Everyday situations are a popular topic for modern rhymes
Popular among children's rhymes are stories in the form of “I believe - I don’t believe”:
- Near the Liteiny Bridge I caught a whale in the Neva and hid it behind the window. The cat ate it, Two cats helped... So now the whale is gone! Don't you trust your friend? Get out of the circle!
- A suitcase was floating on the sea, There was a sofa in the suitcase, An elephant was riding on the sofa. Who doesn't believe - Get out!
- The turtle tucked its tail and ran after the hare, ending up in front. If you don't believe it, come out.
- Bast foot stomped through the frost and climbed a birch tree, and from the birch tree to the moon. Well well!
School is one of the favorite topics for jokes, and counting rhymes are no exception.
For teenagers, the closest and most popular topic is school: about lessons, grades and, of course, teachers:
- There are no lazy people in our class, only Vasya Nikolaev. He comes to class and falls asleep like a groundhog. Quirk, lazybones, couch potato, missed three lessons, was late for the fourth, disappeared somewhere on the fifth, interfered with studying on the sixth, went to get treatment on the seventh, played football on the eighth, didn’t come to the ninth. On the tenth he made faces, On the fourteenth too, On the twentieth he had a dream, On the thirtieth he was kicked out. (S. Marshak).
- Here's the lazy One! I don't want to deal with someone like that. I don’t even like the number two, I can barely tolerate the number three. Aw, clever four! But not everyone is the most beautiful in the world. The most beautiful number is five. It would always be five again!
There is also a painting about the top five – “Again Five”, written by Nikolai Zabolotsky
- Si, si, si, A taxi was driving. The doors open, the teacher shows up in high heels, with arithmetic in his hands. Calls the student: - Tell me the whole table. How much seven seven will be, you don’t know at all! How much is five five, you don’t know again! During the lesson they talked and talked and talked, So that the boys don’t smoke, Don’t smoke, don’t smoke. And the boys around the corner choked on tobacco. And the girls behind the fence choked on a tomato. Suddenly the singing teacher got impatient. He climbed under the ceiling and said: “Finish the lesson!”
Funny rhymes about school help children reduce stress and anxiety associated with studying.
Counting books can be dedicated to one lesson at school, for example, teaching literacy
They are found among school rhymes and “dedications” to one subject or even a historical character:
- One, two, three, four - I was taught to read and write: Don’t count, don’t write, Just jump across the field. I galloped, I galloped, I broke my little leg, my little leg began to hurt, my mother began to feel sorry, she regretted it, scolded me, and sent for the doctor. The doctor rides a bull with a balalaika in his hand.
- Peter the First Went for a walk. I caught a quail and went to sell it. He asked for fifty dollars, received a slap on the head, asked for forgiveness, received a pack of cookies.
The image of Peter the Great has long and firmly entered Russian folklore
Counting books can be dedicated to holidays, for example, one of the most magical and beloved by children - New Year, as well as winter fun. For example:
- One, two, three, four - They sculpted a snowy woman: They attached a carrot nose, They cleverly made her eyes, They gave her a broom in her hands - Run around the yard!
Many rhymes are dedicated to the New Year and fun winter activities.
- Seryozha fell into the snow, and behind him was Alyoshka, and behind him was Irinka, and behind her was Marinka. And then Ignat fell. How many guys are there in the snow?
Teenagers also use funny rhymes, only on more “adult” topics:
- They say that A and B were not sitting on the pipe... (They say that others had enough to do). And Gazprom sat on it.
- Our “Progress” has fallen inappropriately, There is not enough oxygen for everyone, There is no more meat either, So now you are lunch!
- USA, Canada, Ghana, Israel, Iran, Guiana, Pakistan, Iraq, China - Wherever you want to go! But there is one flaw in the poems: Your pocket is empty for now. France-Germany... That's graphomania!
Ask the guys how empty pockets prevent them from going on a trip and what graphomania is and why this word is used in the counting rhyme
Thus, modern children should also learn counting rhymes, which, perhaps, like us in their time, they will transform to suit modern realities. But the main thing is that the ancient genre will live and continue to be passed on from generation to generation, preserving our history, as well as captivating and developing our children.

Well, beware: I’m going to look!” |
The meaning of counting rhymes for children 9–12 years old
Counting books are rhymed quatrains with a funny, sometimes instructive meaning. At a young age, children memorize them in order to develop speech, expand their vocabulary, and also distribute roles in the game.
Children 9–12 years old work with counting rhymes for other reasons. Firstly, this is a unique folklore genre that clearly reflects the culture of the Russian people. Secondly, with the help of rhymes you can remember facts from school subjects that are not so easy to learn using traditional methods.
Learning rhymes in a foreign language helps you hone your pronunciation and learn new vocabulary.
Counting books are relevant even for schoolchildren aged 9–12 years: with the help of rhyming lines you can learn complex material or diversify the game during recess
