A tiny bedtime rhyme about a boy who says his prayers and kisses his parents goodnight before heading upstairs. Short enough to fold straight into an actual bedtime routine.
From Mother Goose / Nursery Rhymes (traditional). See the whole collection.
When little Fred went to bed,
He always said his prayers;
He kissed mamma, and then papa,
And straightway went upstairs.
