The Big Pig Song
This You Tube clip focuses on words that rhyme with pig. You child doesn't need to read the words, just listen to the rhyming and join in with the song.
Rhyme Time
This You Tube clip shows pairs of words which rhyme. Encourage your child to join in saying the words (you may need to pause the clip to give him/her the time to do this, as it goes quite fast).
Simple Rhyming Words
This You Tube clip shows pairs of words and then indicates whether or not they rhyme. Turn off the annoying background music, as it serves no purpose. When a pair of pictures is shown, pause the clip and get your child to say the items shown in the pictures (don't focus on the written words). Then ask him/her whether or not the words rhyme. Then play the clip to see if they were right.
Words Shine When They Rhyme
