This is the one I remember the best:
Not last night but the night before,
A Pickle and a pear came a knocking at my door.
I went downstairs to let them in,
A Pickle and a pear came a knocking at my door.
I went downstairs to let them in,
They hit me over the head with a rolling pin.
This one I made up for Hillary when she was ten:
Hillary, Hillary, Hillary Snyder.
Went to bed with her hair on fire.
Woke in the morning with coal black hair,
Ashes, ashes, everywhere.
(I have no idea why I pictured my little girl with her hair was on fire--she had lovely dark brown hair but certainly not on fire and not black.)
And this one was for Bentley:
Bentley Snyder, our baby in blue.
He's a year and a half old, he's not quite new.
He stands on the table and throws off the food.
We're not really sure but we think it's rude.
What jump rope rhymes do you remember?
