When kids gather together they usually start a game with a special rhymes,called counting out rhymes. They need them to decide who will be "it" Children in any country have got a lot of such rhymes!
As ESL teachers like playing games at the lessons and after classes , they also use the counting out rhymes.
What is the other reason to use them at the lesson? They are an essential part of English folklore. And for those who learn English it's the one more possibility to become a real English speaker!
I use these rhymes for organize our class games
