Скороговорка — жанр устного народного творчества. Это специально подобранная фраза с трудно выговариваемым подбором звуков, быстро произносимая шуточная поговорка или прибаутка.
Также английские скороговорки помогают ребенку быстрее освоить речь, учат говорить, правильно произносить слова и научиться хорошо говорить на английском языке. Авторы скороговорок стремились к тому, чтобы ребенок учился правильно произносить слова с удовольствием, поэтому изображенные в них картины жизни часто вызывают смех, улыбку. Скороговорка, как и потешка, «растет» вместе с ребенком.
