Folklorists recognize different areas, or categories of folk expressions. Here are some of the categories, to help you think about folklore you might see in your school, family or community: Oral: These are songs, lullabies and dance games, poetry, jokes, folktales, riddles, proverbs, myths, and special sayings. Material: These are objects such as special kinds of jewelry, home decorations, puppets, quilts, clothing, or musical instruments. Material culture may also include foods and special family recipes.
