Why Rhymes?

For sometime i have been wondering, why are babies taught rhymes in their early schooling days.Today, after listening to 'Jingle bells, jingle bells' for the nth time, have been thinking how does rhymes contribute in shaping up a child's personality? What difference does it make on the thinking pattern of a kid, that he is compulsorily made to learn rhymes?
