The animal couplets for children are usually one of the most typical variants of this type of poems formed by quatrains of 8-syllable verses. The couplets allow the imagination of adults and infants to develop with daily activities and the environment that surrounds them, making use of resources such as personification, simile, hyperbole or exaggeration, among others.
Public and private initiatives have been proposed to promote the publication, with printed media and using information technology, of verses and their dissemination in the classroom and at home.
This would result in the expansion of the training process of the students, through didactic games, brochures, books, poetry recital contests, others.
The verses allow infants to know and develop stories, through observation and discovery of qualities.
They can be serious or funny, with free verses. The promotion of reading allows them to give them opportunities to express themselves in public (few or many people) and to learn positive customs in their communities.
