The Mother Goose in YOU!

Who would have not known a famous nursery rhymes like Jack and Jill, Three Little Kittens, Three Blind Mice and Baa Baa Black Sheep? I'm sure you had  your own favorites rhymes and fairy tales when you  were a kid and probably now  you enjoy rhyming it with your little ones. And where else can you find these  but from the great book of Mother Goose. 

Yes, the famous Mother Goose... and me and my daughters just love her!


But is Mother Goose real? 
This sounds silly, but Danya asked me this question few weeks ago but I did not have a ready answer that I have to google and research some information just to give a decent answer. I told her, Mother Goose” was not a real person.  But the name was simply invented and used as a moniker or an alias  for  "every woman/ mother" who loves to tell many tales and rhymes to their children. Though for me, it's not just about telling stories, it's about creating memories with your little ones every time you spend real time reading and sharing stories with them.  
So how do we show the Mother Goose in us? 
Oh in so many ways and you can be as creative as you can be. It can be a fun reading time before bedtime or a special  family puppet show of their favorite rhymes or special parties or events with family and friends where they can show off their nursery rhymes. All of these creative ideas need not be expensive to be fun. All you need are friends, foods and some scraps in your house!

I am sharing some photos from the recent birthday party of our Little Miss Yurie which obviously, was inspired and created by one true Mother Goose!
