rhyme time

Verse-ending sound game

Rhyme time is a scheduled activity, typically in libraries or preschools, where young children gather for songs, nursery rhymes, and simple stories: The library hosts rhyme time every Tuesday morning.

The phrase itself demonstrates what it describes—two words that rhyme.

Outside educational settings, rhyme time can playfully announce any moment for wordplay or verse.
