Boggle Translate: Nursery Rhymes!



Teaching tip:

Looking for some end of year fun and nonsense?

Give groups an old nursery rhyme ( don't expect them to know them!) and a thesaurus, then set them to work "boggle" translating!

boggle: cause (a person or their mind) to be astonished.


How long does it take you to figure this one out?


A trio of visually impaired small rodents.


A trio of visually impaired small rodents.


Observe their speedy forward movement.


Observe their speedy forward movement.


They advance towards the spouse of the agricultural worker,

Who dislocated their wiggly-wigglers from their rear hind-quarters ( utilizing a cleaver).

Never have I witnessed such a visually traumatising image in all my days of existence,

As a trio of visually impaired small rodents!


Thank you to best bunch of homeschooler creative writing kids in St Albans for this boggle translate of a well-known nursery rhyme. ( Elias, Eloise, Josephs P and C-S, Lydia and Theo)
