Rhymes are "short children's songs that serve to counting children at play, which at the same time can be very suitable for developing a sense of rhythm" (Pedagogical Lexicon, 1996, p. 56). There are several types of nursery rhymes and their classification according to different criteria. They can be classified according to form and content, as well as whether their authors are children or adults. The criterion of understanding classifies them into rhymes rational sense, irrational - meaningless, and rhymes with a partial sense (see examples of rhymes at Milenkovic and Dragojevic, 2009).
