Hinky Pinky
H
inky Pinky is a rhyming game designed to teach children how to create rhymes. For instance, the adult or teacher says, “Give me a Hinky Pinky for a ‘relaxed man.’” The child thinks a bit and comes up with a “mellow fellow.”
For the purposes of Olive, however, the game is reversed as Olive provides the rhyme and the reader provides the clue. All the rhymes are clues for a body part—and the body parts are listed from top to bottom!
Olive: Give me the equivalent body part for the following.
1. Deer Leer =
2. Square Hair =
3. Numb Thumb =
4. Confusion Protrusion =
5. Wonky Donkey =
Reader: …And the answer is:
1.
2.
3.
4.
5.
