Celebrating Children's Songs and Rhymes | February 2009
from the What's New! Newsletter Index

For centuries nursery rhymes have been an integral part of childhood. Nursery rhymes have been recited to children to wake them up, to put them to sleep, or teach them about all sorts of things. Most of us have little or no idea about the fascinating origins or meanings of these rhymes. MakingMusicFun.net has 425 songs including, whenever possible, historical facts for each of the songs. We also provide free song sheets with music lyrics and guitar chords as well as printable sheet music for piano.
