Summary/Abstract: It is known that introducing the learning of poetry to kids, and awakening their interest for it has incalculable and at the same time invaluable effects on their personal, emotional and behavioral development. However, it is not an easy task to compose a poetry adapted to young age kids, and that ultimately fulfill their learning expectations. Neither is the fact of composing a poetry dedicated to kids that is both entertaining and hilarious. The present article aims to analyze how some poets engage this risky adventure of creating humoristic poetry dedicated to a consuming young age public, and to what extent they achieved the pursued objectives.
