Provide the children with character and setting picture cards from familiar nursery rhymes. For example, a Humpty Dumpty card and a wall card, a Jack and Jill card and a hill card, an Itsy Bitsy Spider card and a web card. Have them draw a character card and a setting card and make up a new rhyme: “Jill climbed down carefully from Humpty Dumpty's wall and met a king's horseman and they got married and lived happily ever after.” This activity could be done in small group.
