The bottle of perfume that Willie sent
Was highly displeasing to Millicent;
Her thanks were so cold
They quarreled, I'm told,
Through that silly scent Willie sent Millicent.

I've added a page of Limericks for Kids to the website at kidsbooke.com. It features twelve brand new kid-friendly limericks. You can find it here: Limericks for Kids


Welcome back to the World of Limericks


A mosquito was heard to complain,
"A chemist has poisoned my brain!"
The cause of his sorrow
was paradichloro-
triphenyldichloroethane.


The Activities

In this issue, for the kids, there's another each of the Limerick Word Search, Limerick Crossword Puzzle, and Limerick Scramble.

And you grown-ups have a new activity as well :)

Then there's Part Two of our How To on writing your own limericks.

And finally ...


By this time, I estimate, you
Must be thinking a break's overdue;
To conclude, for all ages,
Our colouring pages
Are one and one more and that's two.


All the activities are contained in this pdf (just right-click the link to download).

You can also do the Crossword Puzzle and the Word Search online at the Kidsbooke website, if you choose. This link will take you to the online page.

Fun Fact

A limerick is also a quintain. A quintain is any poem, of any form, that contains five lines.

I'm trying to establish whether the Kidsbookely newsletter in this format is of any use or interest to you. Or not.

It would only take a moment to click in your answers to this quick questionnaire. Your responses will help to shape future issues.

That's it for Kidsbookely Issue 03.

Please let me know what you think.

Feel free to reply to this email, or to contact me any time using the contact form.

And please fill out the questionnaire :)
