Printable Nursery Rhyme Easy Readers
These printable readers contain the popular words to classic nursery rhymes. Students can sing or chant along as they read but their favorite part may be coloring the books to make them their own!
The Nursery Rhyme Easy Readers in this pack are super quick to prepare! Just print double-sided, cut in half, staple, and voila – you have two books ready to go! This is great for saving paper. If you’re using them at home, it means there is an extra copy for you to follow along with!

How to Use the Nursery Rhyme Easy Readers
My favorite way to use these readers is in small groups. I like to introduce the nursery rhymes to the students so we can practice any tricky or unfamiliar words that we find.
Some words found in classic nursery rhymes are not common words for Pre-K or Kindergarten students so taking the time to read through the books together first is super helpful. The simple and fun pictures are also great tools for helping students if they get stuck on a word!
Once we have identified all of our tricky words, we love hunting for rhyming words. The kids are so excited when they recognize a rhyme! We often go through and highlight or underline the rhyming words that we find.
When we are done reading (and singing!) our nursery rhymes the students can color their books independently.
When the readers are beautifully colored, the students can take their nursery rhyme collection home to proudly show off!
