Many of us were raised on Mother Goose – sweet nursery rhymes and childrens’ songs that are at least a couple hundred years old. They were sung to us with safety, comfort, warmth, and love in the arms of our parents. Nursery rhymes cause wonderful memories that we want to pass along to our children.
