I was trying to remember some tonque twisters from my youth to teach the six year old and could only remember parts of some, so I did the obligatory Google search (at her suggestion) and ran across the following:<br /><br />Peter Piper picked a peck of pickled peppers.<br />Did Peter Piper pick a peck of pickled peppers?<br />If Peter Piper picked a peck of pickled peppers,<br />where's the peck of pickled peppers Peter Piper picked?<br /><br />Betty Botter had some butter,<br />"But," she said, "this butter's bitter.<br />If I bake this bitter butter,<br />it would make my batter bitter.<br />But a bit of better butter--<br />that would make my batter better."<br /><br />So she bought a bit of butter,<br />better than her bitter butter,<br />and she baked it in her batter,<br />and the batter was not bitter.<br />So 'twas better Betty Botter<br />bought a bit of better butter.<br /><br />She sells sea shells by the sea shore.<br />The shells she sells are surely seashells.<br />So if she sells shells on the seashore,<br />I'm sure she sells seashore shells.<br /><br />I am not the pheasant plucker,<br />I'm the pheasant plucker's mate.<br />I am only plucking pheasants<br />'cause the pheasant plucker's running late.<br /><br />A bitter biting bittern<br />Bit a better brother bittern,<br />And the bitter better bittern<br />Bit the bitter biter back.<br />And the bitter bittern, bitten,<br />By the better bitten bittern,<br />Said: "I'm a bitter biter bit, alack!"<br /><br />Mr. See owned a saw.<br />And Mr. Soar owned a seesaw.<br />Now See's saw sawed Soar's seesaw<br />Before Soar saw See,<br />Which made Soar sore.<br />Had Soar seen See's saw<br />Before See sawed Soar's seesaw,<br />See's saw would not have sawed<br />Soar's seesaw.<br />So See's saw sawed Soar's seesaw.<br />But it was sad to see Soar so sore<br />Just because See's saw sawed<br />Soar's seesaw!<br /><br />How much wood would a woodchuck chuck<br />if a woodchuck could chuck wood?<br />He would chuck, he would, as much as he could,<br />and chuck as much wood as a woodchuck would<br />if a woodchuck could chuck wood.<br /><br />Silly Sally swiftly shooed seven silly sheep.<br />The seven silly sheep Silly Sally shooed<br />shilly-shallied south.<br />These sheep shouldn't sleep in a shack;<br />sheep should sleep in a shed.<br /><br />There was a young fisher named Fischer<br />Who fished for a fish in a fissure.<br />The fish with a grin,<br />Pulled the fisherman in;<br />Now they're fishing the fissure for Fischer.<br /><br />If you stick a stock of liquor in your locker,<br />It's slick to stick a lock upon your stock,<br />Or some stickler who is slicker<br />Will stick you of your liquor<br />If you fail to lock your liquor<br />With a lock!<br /><br />Im not a fig plucker. <br />or a fig plucker's son.<br />But I'll pluck the figs, <br />Till the fig plucker comes. <br /><br />A skunk sat on a stump, <br />The stump thunk the skunk stunk, <br />and the skunk thunk the stump stunk.<br /><br />Dose anyone teach these to their kids anymore?<br /><br />Add some new ones if you don't see it posted here . ;)
