Mother Goose

From Memory Alpha, the free Star Trek reference

Mother Goose was a collection of children's stories and nursery rhymes popular on the Earth.

In 2366, Commander William T. Riker referred to Manua Apgar who was living isolated with her husband, Tanugan scientist Doctor Nel Apgar on the Tanuga IV science station as "a princess in a very high tower.'" (TNG: "A Matter of Perspective")

In 2371, Doctor Julian Bashir told the Mother Goose tale The Boy Who Cried Wolf. (DS9: "Improbable Cause")

In 2376, Neelix described a collection of old Talaxian tales as "not exactly mother goose," when looking for examples of the word vaadwaur. (VOY: "Dragon's Teeth")

Neelix thought mother goose tales can frighten children with their ogres and such. (VOY: "The Haunting of Deck Twelve")
