Nursery Rhyme Quiz

I wasn’t raised in the U.S., but because  I was fortunate to be able to stay home with the girls during their first year of life , I was able to get acquainted with the “kid culture” and become a fun mom!

I watched a lot of PBS Kids:  Sesame Street (which I knew as “Plaza Sesamo”), especially Elmo’s World, Calliou, Clifford The Big Red Dog, Arthur, Mr. Rogers, and yes…I admit it… Barney! LOL

I was introduced to Dr. Seuss, The Berenstain Bears, The Very Hungry Caterpillar, Good Night Moon, I love You This Much, Love You Forever (just to name a few of my favorites), the classic nursery rhymes.

My nickname for Elyssa is “BaaBaa” because she would say “Ma-ma, BaaBaa” so I could sing the Black Sheep song all day long!

I played this nursery rhyme quiz game at my cousin’s baby shower and it brought back memories. Time sure flies. Let’s see how many you get right!
