The Queen of Hearts is a ruthless and authoritarian character from Lewis Carroll's "Alice's Adventures in Wonderland." Her catchphrase "Off with their heads!" reflects her quick temper and tendency to order executions for even minor offenses. She is known for her obsession with croquet and her demanding nature.

There is no real meaning to 'Fee, fi, fo, fum'. It's just a nonsense expression like 'Ho, ho, ho', and 'Tantantara'. Such expressions are the staff of life of fairy tales and pantomimes. perhaps it originally meant: fear fire foe (run)!!?????

When making cheese, milk is used and by the action of the correct bacteria, then forms curds much like you see in cottage cheese. They would then pour this mixture through a cheese cloth and twist it squeezing out the liquid which is called whey.

Little Boy Blue is actually a nursery rhyme, not a fairy tale.

Jill likely suffered a traumatic brain injury, which can lead to swelling of the brain due to internal bleeding, blood clots, or damage to brain tissue. Other possible causes of brain swelling include infections, tumors, or strokes.

"But an American doctor with patience and glue, put humpty together better than new, now he is busily on the scene, selling Humpty Dumpty magazine." The second verse used to be in the Humpty Dumpty magazine I used to get when I was a kid..in the late 50's. I don't know if it is still in their magazine, but I do know it is still published.

yes its Humpty Dumpty lay on the floor Humpty Dumpty sadder then more all the kings horses and all the kings men could put Humpty together again!

The words to the nursery rhyme "Miss Molly had a dolly" go: "Miss Molly had a dolly who was sick, sick, sick. So she called for the doctor to come quick, quick, quick. The doctor came with his bag and his hat, And he knocked at the door, with a rat-a-tat-tat."

In the nursery rhyme "Monday's Child," Tuesday's child is described as "full of grace". It reflects the idea that children born on Tuesday are believed to inherit the characteristic of gracefulness.

No.

Ring Around the Rosie pre-dates America's nuclear attack on Hiroshima by at least 60 years.

The first recorded version of Ring A Ring Of Roses dates to 1881, when it appeared in Kate Greenaway's edition of Mother Goose:

Ring-a-ring-a-roses,

A pocket full of posies;

Hush! hush! hush! hush!

We're all tumbled down.

It was however, referred to twenty six years prior to that in Ann S Stephen's novel The Old Homestead, which describes children playing 'Ring Ring A Rosy' in New York.

In 1883 William Newell reported two versions in America, and claimed that one version was current in New Bedford, Massachusetts in 1790:

Ring a ring a Rosie,

A bottle full of posie,

All the girls in our town

Ring for little Josie.

Also in 1883, versions were recorded in England which included the now familiar sneezing motif, for example:

A ring, a ring o' roses,

A pocket full o'posies-

Atch chew! atch chew!

In 1892 Alice Gomme listed twelve versions, including one like the version currently sung in Britain:

Ring a-ring o' roses,

A pocketful of posies.

a-tishoo!, a-tishoo!.

We all fall down.

After World War II, historians began to claim that there was a connection between the rhyme and the outbreak of bubonic plague in 1665, or possibly even the outbreak of the 1300s. However, these claims are generally regarded to be incorrect because of the lateness of this explanation arising, the fact that the symptoms of plague do not actually match the words of the song, and that earlier and foreign language variations of the song do not match up to the theory.

There are however, many people who still subscribe to this theory, despite the fact that it is highly improbable that it's correct. For more, please use the link below.

This nursery rhyme line refers to three men in a bathtub, which is a nonsensical and humorous image. It is often used as a playful and light-hearted phrase in children's literature and songs.

Yes. That is how the rhyme goes!! :)

I don't understand the question, but that IS the rhyme.

Hope thus helps.

you must be jack who went with Jill up the hill to fetch a pail of water and then you fell down and bumped your head and forgot all you learned in school because to is a preposition.

using mainly spoons and manure, she grows silver bells and cockle shells. It's quite magnificent in the springtime. I hear that she has an entry to this year's Chelsea flower show. The pretty maids don't live there any more, they went to university last Easter.

Well actually that nursery rhyme was decatied to a queen that was ruthless.

Mary Tudor, she murdered many ppl because of their reliagion the flowers are tombstones and the sliver belles are the gullitone or the bells that toll when some one dies. her nick name was "bloody Mary" there is also some debate if its really about Mary Queen of Scots

Curds are a dairy productobtained by coagulating milk in a process called curdling. Whey is the liquid remaining after milk has been curdled and strained. The whole mess is similar to cottage cheese.

Hey Diddle Diddle

The Cat and the fiddle

the cow jumped over the moon

the little dog laughed to see such a sight

and the dish ran away with the spoon.

a cat cannot play a fiddle, a cow could never jump over a moon, a dog would not be laughing and a dish certainly cannot run.

The spider invited the fly into its web under the pretense of offering shelter or hospitality. However, the true intention was to capture and consume the fly as prey.

Her lamb followed her to school. It made the children laugh and play but it was against the rules.

Little Bunny Foo-foo.

Yes, the rhyme "Oranges and Lemons" has been around for many years. It is a traditional English nursery rhyme that dates back to at least the 18th century. The rhyme is often associated with a children's game played in London.

There are tales that the original Mother Goose was the wife of an Isaac Goose (sometimes thought to be named Vergoose or Vertigoose), either named Elizabeth Foster Goose (1665-1758) or Mary Goose (d. 1690, age 42) in Boston Massachusetts. There is no evidence to support these tales and some evidence for other origins of the name Mother Goose.
