I'm sure that that there are "finger and toe rhymes" in other languages than my own (Swedish). You know, the kind of rhymes that you recite to a baby while counting its toes or fingers. Swedish finger rhymes in translation would go something like "Thumb Tot, Lick-The-Pot, Tall Man, Golden Fire - and little Peter Piper" (or "little Vickevire"). Toe rhymes: "Little toe, Tittle toe, Toe-tittle, Madame Beak - and Big Old Man Horsie". Or "Bean, Pea, Trinta, Tranta, and little Trant-Kid". There are lots of variants. What are the rhymes in your language, if you have any? I'd love to see them both in the original language and in English translation.
