Modern Nursery Rhymes

[justateacher]

Just wondering if anyone could help me find a book, or a website with modern nursery rhymes.

Regular Mother Goose put to modern day words.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Wow... I'd really like to help you but unfortunately the ones I found weren't very nice... quite nasty as a matter of fact. I don't think you'd want to teach these to your kids. I can't BELIEVE how they mangled them. LOL

I have a book called "I Love You Rituals" that re-words alot of nursery rhymes, and introduces new rhymes with the concept in mind of building the child's self-esteem and self-worth. It is by Becky A Bailey, PH.D.

Sorry, I may not be of much help, but I thought I saw some modern day versions in a book in one of those bookclub brochures (ie. scholastic, or carnival, or weekly reader, or some such one). Maybe check there. It was for this month. Good luck.

Sorry...I prefer to teach the traditional ones.
