The Little Bunny
There was a little bunny who lived in the wood,
He wiggled his ears as a good bunny should.
He hopped by a squirrel, He hopped by a tree.
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 winked at me!

Movement Activities
Bunny Pokey
(Tune: Hokey Pokey)
You put your bunny ears in,
(Place hands on head to make ears.)
You put your bunny ears out.
You put your bunny ears in.
And you shake them all about.
You do the Bunny Pokey
And hop yourself around,
That's what it's all about!
Additional Verses:
You put your bunny nose in,
You put your bunny tail in,
You put your bunny paws in,
