PANCOCOJAMS EDITOR'S NOTE
By "children's rhymes" I mean rhymes that may or may not have been composed by children, but are documented as being chanted by children while jumping rope, playing hand clap games, recited as taunting rhymes, or otherwise. The "children's recreational rhymes" category doesn't include "nursery rhymes". ("Nursery rhymes" are also known as "Mother Goose rhymes").
In each rhyme, the United States president's name is given in italics the first time it is mentioned.
Brief information about that President is given underneath that rhyme. If that rhyme includes a name of another famous person and/or the name of a fictitious person, brief information about that person is also given underneath that rhyme.
The online sources for these playground rhymes are given after the examples.
No performance activity is specified for most of these rhymes. However, I believe that most of these examples are either hand clap rhymes or jump rope rhymes.
