Nursery rhymes were first recorded in English plays, and by the 19^th century were found in printed collections. Some of us might still have an old copy of the Mother Goose nursery rhymes, which originally dates back to the 1830s. Even Walt Disney created a series of animated shorts featuring nursery rhymes in the 1930s.
