Recitation

In line with the Shichida method training, I try to have my son, Sasha, recite poem or nursery rhyme for several times a day to sharpen his memory. Haiku by Basho poem is by far my Son's favorite poem. He could recite this poem in a heart beat.

Haiku

The old pond
A frog jumps in
The sound of water

At present, Sasha has also memorized the following nursery rhymes and he likes to recite them as well:

Lavender's Blue

Lavender's Blue, diddle diddle
Lavender's green

When I am king, diddle diddle
You shall be queen

and

Star Light, Star Bright

Star light, Star bright
First star I see tonight

I wish I may, I wish I might
Have the wish I wish tonight
