Haiku is a type of short Japanese poetry that alludes to nature. But it is, at the same time, a fun way to do poetry with children.

The classic haiku is composed of 17 syllables distributed in three lines of 5, 7, and 5 syllables, respectively, although nowadays, there are some variations in terms of lines and themes.

The origin of haiku

Haiku is a type of short Japanese poetry. Its popularity in Japan began in the mid-17th century, thanks to the Japanese poet Matsuo Bashō. He was followed by other poets, such as Yosa Buson and the great master of haiku, Kobayashi Issa.

Names of animals and plants can also be used, since, as we’ve said, these short poems can be about anything. In fact, haiku offers as many possibilities as one’s creative capacity can come up with.
