Chicken on a mission Posted April 11, 2006 Share Posted April 11, 2006 Hi Everyone. Having been a member of this forum for a short while now, I have come to conclusion that we have some very talented poets Ever since our daughter was old enough to talk we have always composed short rhymes for christmas and birthdays so that our monster has to follow the clues to find her present. She loves it and all us adults love to join in and help too. The problem is that I have run out of rhymes and she is only only 3 1/2 Can any one help out with some simple rhymes we can use to direct her round the house and garden to find her easter egg. If anyone can I'd be grateful Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chicken on a mission Posted April 11, 2006 Author Share Posted April 11, 2006 That's the sort of thing chookie She does rhyming now so I tend to read out the clue and not say the last word which she has to guess to tell her where to look Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chicken on a mission Posted April 11, 2006 Author Share Posted April 11, 2006 No, not on the windowsills ....... maybe near the daffodils The only plant in our garden is a eucalyptus tree.

Sheilaz Posted April 12, 2006 Share Posted April 12, 2006 I like Mel's, very good, you can do a treasure hunt for Paul. COAM, I don't think I'd get the 2nd clue, so very hard for a 3 yr old. I like the general idea though, & will have a think.... ......washing up, what do you think? it's all piled up in the kitchen xxxx sorry, your sink is prob. clean & empty, it would work in my house. I've always done a treasure hunt, I love them, ....and the children are relieved when they find the treasure But, I don't use rhymes. Just very corny clues & puns. Perhaps rhymes would be more enjoyable for my family Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
