Small children are aware of rhyme before they learn to read or spell. Rhyming helps children learn about letter sequences, an important skill in reading. Preschoolers exposed to frequent rhyming show increased skills in recognizing the differences and similarities between words. The more children are exposed to rhyming, the better they will understand how to read.
