Bueno! (Hello! in Mexican, Spanish) The Mexican Flag I haven't featured a nursery rhyme in a while, so I thought today we'd explore: HICKORY DICKORY DOCK! Now, I have noticed that different versions contain different tenses of the verb "to run". I think the above version is correct, grammar-wise. Wikipedia has a very good history of the rhyme. 'Hickety Dickety Dock' illustration by William Wallace Denslow from a 1901 Mother Goose collection. It looks like the rhyme originally was said as: 'Hickere, Dickere Dock' published in London in 1744. close-up of William Denslow's illustration The next version comes from 'Mother Goose's Melody' printed in 1765. It uses 'Dickery, Dickery Dock' Interesting to me: There are TWO musical versions. One is popular in Great Britain, and the other one is popular in North America! The one printed above is the version I am familiar with, so I guess it is the North American tune. A super scherensnitte pattern for a mouse, taken from a Chinese Zodiac series. scroll clock by mdereus27 possibly etsy? Now, the above scherensnitte type clock was originally for a Cinderella story. By changing the position of the hands, you could easily make this into a hickory dickory dock clock! (say that 6 times, really fast....) vintage illustration found at http://www.fun-roadtrip-games.info/ Here are a few more coloring pages for you - http://www.reading-with-kids.com/ unknown source and another terrific How-to-draw from Dover Publications: an adorable cupcake found at http://www.thecupcakeblog.com/ Why couldn't you also make that little mouse from clay? What about making a 'clock' pincushion (felt would be easiest), and make some hat pin toppers from shrinky dink plastic? vintage Rand McNally book, found at http://www.michiganzone.blogspot.com/ This next is a very clever way to serve some party treats with a theme: http://www.littlenummies.net/ That's a peanut butter sandwich, with a hole cut out for a banana slice. The mouse is made from a strawberry, with halved grape ears, and little raisin eyes and nose! I'm not sure what she used for the clock hands or the mouse whiskers or tail. But you could try orange peels, or chow mein noodles or bread crusts.... Here is a fun and simple vintage pattern for embroidery: found at http://www.sewcraftful.com/ Wouldn't it be fun for a nursery room to have several embroidered pillows, each with a different nursery rhyme on it? Sew deep ruffles for a girl's room, and knife point edges for a boy's. You could, of course, be really energetic and make a baby quilt with each block a different nursery rhyme. Check out my past blogs for more nursery rhyme patterns, and check out the links from where I have found them for many more! I'd like to finish up today with a vintage poster from 1917: illustrated by Mary Louise Spoor and found at http://www.smallequals.bigcartel.com/ I especially like the little mouse reading! Remember to smile at someone today that is a 'wall flower'. Don't forget to laugh with a child today, and eat ice cream!!! :0) inkspired http://www.inkspired.etsy.com/

I'm turning once again to my trusty Childcraft Library which is chock full of great vintage illustrations from many beloved illustrators of the past. The combination of photograph and illustration is kitschy and sweet. I have to say as the mother of four that I don't recall many photographic moments like this lol. Illustration by Eloise Wilken and photo from Tell City Chair Company. This one isn't too hard to guess. Pen and ink work by Garth Williams with his distinctive gentle animals and characters. This one I wouldn't have guessed. My first thought was Feodor Rojankovsky as the illustrator, but it's not. Anyone care to guess? I also wouldn't have been able to guess this one, though I love his work. The illustrator is Nicolas Mordvinoff. Illustrator is Eraldo Carugati - anyone familiar with this artist? Artwork by Hope Taylor from Highway, Byway and City Rhymes Art by Vladimir Bobri Wonderful illustration by Maurice Sendak The distinctive work of Virginia Lee Burton Illustrator Ezra Jack Keats The Little Land When at home alone I sit, And am very tired of it, I have just to shut my eyes To go sailing through the skies-- To go sailing far way To the pleasant Land of Play.
