            One little bunnyPeeking through the grass
 When she/he sees me
 He/she ducks down fast!
       | What Is It? 
            Tall earsTwinkly nose
 Tiny tail
 And....hop, he goes!

            | The Rabbit 
            Mr. Rabbit has a habitThat is very cute to see
 He wrinkles up and crinkles up
 His little nose at me.
 I like my little rabbit
 And I like his little brother,
 And we have a lot of fun
 Making faces at each other.
   | Here Is A Bunny 
                            Here is a bunny with ears so 
            funny, (hold up index and middle finger for ears.)
 And here is his hole in the ground,
 (make circle with other hand using index finger & 
            thumb)
 At the first sound he hears, he pricks up his ears,
 (extend 2 fingers)
 And hops in the hole in the ground.
 (fingers jump into hole)

            Bunnies 
                            One little bunny,Wondering what to do,
 Another bunny came along,
 Then there were two.
 Two little bunnies,Hopping like me,
 Another bunny came along,
 Then there were three.
 Three little bunnies,Jumping by my door,
 Another bunny joined them,
 Then there were four.
 Four little bunnies,So fluffy and alive,
 Another bunny joined them,
 Then there were five.
 Five little bunnies,Ready for some fun,
 Hopped away in the
 Warm, Spring sun.

 He hopped by a duck, And he hopped by me.
 He stared at the squirrel. He stared at the tree.
 He stared at the duck. But he made faces at me!

 I'm a little bunny, with a cotton 
                            tail;
 See me hopping down the trail,
 When I see a carrot ---
 My ears - they shake!
 And then, of course,
 A Bite I take!!!

                            Bunny rabbit with ears so tall,And two pink eyes about this small,
 Went hop, hop, hopping to get some lunch.
 He found a fresh carrot, O yum-yum, crunch-crunch!
 While he was eating and having such fun,
 Bang! What a noise! He started to run.
 All you could see as he went racing by,
 Was his powder puff tail - waving good-bye.

            The fluffy little 
            rabbits so soft and white, (Place hands on head to represent rabbit 
            ears.)
 Went looking for some carrots in the dark, 
            dark night. (Look, holding your hand over 
            your eyes.)
 The fluffy little rabbits found a garden 
            so big,
 (Extend your arms outward.)
 So they jumped into the garden and began 
            to dig.
 (Jump; then pretend to dig.)
 They ate the crunchy carrots so orange and 
            bright, (Pretend to eat a carrot.)
 Till they heard some footsteps coming and 
            they froze in fright. (Pretend to be 
            frightened.)
 Then the fluffy little rabbits heard the farmer say,
 (Listen: cup your hand around your ear.)
 "Scat, little rabbits," and they all 
            hopped away!
 (Clap once when you say,
 "Scat"; then hop.)
     | Funny Bunny 
            Little Easter, the 
            comedienne bunny,Tried too hard at being funny.
 She juggled and she dropped the eggs
 They fell and smashed between her legs.
 
 Poor Easter left the stage in shame
 And thought that she might change her name.
 But then that little bunny read this ad,
 "This Sunday we need help real bad!"
 
 So Easter Bunny kept her name
 And through the years has gained much fame,
 When Easter's Sunday comes each year,
 She delivers eggs and we all cheer.
