Las canciones infantiles tienen un importante valor en lo que muchos autores, como Anna M. Fernández Poncela, llaman socialización primaria. Durante este proceso, niños y niñas se hacen efectivamente miembros de la sociedad y comienzan a expresarse como tales. El análisis de las canciones infantiles nos permite vislumbrar modelos que a todas luces no benefician a nadie. Las mujeres se ven reducidas a la maternidad, al ámbito del hogar, a cómo deben ser, qué deben hacer y comportarse. Todo ello perversamente unido a su valor ante el hombre para ser elegidas, queridas o casadas. Los hombres se presentan con una imagen simplista, reduccionista, con aspiraciones muy primarias y muy limitado por su rol de "macho", sin opción a valorar el amor, los hijos, el hogar, entre otros. Podemos concluir que hombres y mujeres salen mal parados de los estereotipos y roles que muestran las canciones infantiles, mostrando un panorama sujeto al destino y la escasa libertad para la elección
Nursery rimes are valuable in what many authors call primary socialization. During this process, children effectively become members of society and thus begin to behave as such. The analysis of these songs allows us to identify patterns that clearly have no clear benefit for anyone. According to them, women are reduced to motherhood, housewifery; their role and preferred behaviour being clearly spelled out. This all becomes perversely linked to their courage in the face of the man who is to choose them, either as wives or lovers. On the other hand, men are presented in a simplistic and reductionist way, with primitive aspirations which appear to be limited by their macho status, taking away from them the possibility to harbour any feeling towards love, children and their home, among other factors. It is possible to argue that both men and women are made to look bad by the stereotypes and roles described in nursery rimes, which suggest their lives are subjected to limited freedom of choice and destiny driven pathways
