Grown-ups Say Silly Things

We adults might want to remember – "don't EVER underestimate the power of a child's imagination" – especially when using familiar phrases or common expressions. Next time it rains, enjoy some fun sharing this rhyme with your favorite kids. Encourage them to create new sketches for the poem. Ask them to help you figure out synonyms for "pound". Or perhaps make a list of the reasons why "rain" is a very good thing and something to be thankful for -- even when it is joined by loud thunder!
