The string for children it is a literary device, usually short, where a story is told, with rhyming verses, which in turn are sung into a melody. They are used in the form of word games, help verbal fluency, enrich the child's language and encourage their imagination.
In turn, through this type of musical games, preschool children interact with each other, which constitutes a powerful tool for educational integration and inclusion..
The string is not typical of any country or region, but it is adapted to the language in which it is written. It is kept in the minds of the collective for years and is transmitted from generation to generation and they are not tied to any specific issue..

Infinite tales. The string is repeated indefinitely:
Do you want me to tell you the tale of the bald rooster?
My granny had a cat,
with rag ears,
and the paper snout.
Would you like me to tell you again?
(The child can answer yes or no)
Tell me yes,
tell me no,
that my grandmother had a cat,
with rag ears,
and the paper snout.
Would you like me to tell you again?

Retahílas for the memory:
In the city there is a door,
the door opens onto a street,
The street goes to a square,
in the square there is a house,
in the house there is an entrance,
the entrance goes to a room,
in the livingroom there's a table,
on the table a cage,
inside the cage a parrot,
that singing says to everyone:
get me out of the cage
what is on the table
what is in the living room
that overlooks the entrance
what is in the house
what's in the square
facing the street
that goes to the door
What is there in the city.
