Developing an awareness of alliteration in language is an important part of children’s literacy development. Not only is it fun, it is an essential element of phonemic awareness, and children with a good grasp of alliteration will find work in this area much easier than children who lack this skill.

Ros Bayley’s Alliteration Raps offers some new, imaginative and often amusing rhymes through which children can practice their skills. Some of the raps include ideas for innovation.
