Art form of folk nursery rhymes

Nursery rhymes, which are created for children by children themselves, adults or literati, are based on children's understanding and interests, and are suitable for children to recite and sing. They have been widely circulated among children for a long time. It is based on the collective creation of working people, mainly through word of mouth. Sentences are short and neat, closely combined with the lives of working people, reflecting the social outlook, people's thoughts and feelings, aspirations and aesthetic tastes of each era.

Children are only interested in what is happening around them, which are regional and tangible, and then they will listen, remember and pass on. Because the creators, receivers and disseminators of nursery rhymes are all from a certain region, what appears in nursery rhymes must be felt and touched by children in their lives. Once beyond a certain area, children will find it hard to accept because of lack of sufficient figuration. Even if they accept it for a while, they will soon be forgotten. Therefore, even nursery rhymes with the same theme will be changed in circulation, which will make local children familiar.
