Mother has a kitten,
Mother has a mouse,
Mother has a bird that sings
All around the house,
Mother has a lammie,
Mother has a chick;
All together have but two feet.
Guess my riddle quick!
-Laura E. Richards
The Whole Duty Of Children
A child should always say what's true
And speak when he is spoken to,
And behave mannerly at table:
At least so far as he is able.
-Robert Louis Stevenson
"How many miles to Baby-Land?"
"Any one can tell;
Up one flight,
To your right,
Please to ring the bell."
"What do they do in Baby-Land?"
"Dream and wake and play,
Laugh and crow,
Shout and grow,
Jolly times have they!"
"What do they say in Baby-Land?"
"Why, the oddest things;
Might as well
Try to tell
What a birdie sings!"
"Who is the queen of Baby-Land?"
"Mother, kind and sweet;
And her love,
Born above,
Guides the little feet."
-George Cooper
