Easter
Bunny, Easter Bunny,
Put hands on top of head like rabbit ears.
Small and white,
Hold hands close together to show something tiny.
Come and fill my Easter baskey
Pretend to fill basket.
Overnight.
Pretend to sleep.
Mary
had a little lamb
Mary had a little
lamb,
Its fleece was white as snow,
And everywhere that Mary went,
The lamb was sure to go.
It followed her to school one day,
That was against the rule.
It made the children laugh and play
To see a lamb at school.
And so the teacher turned it out,
But still it lingered near
And waited patiently about,
Till Mary did appear.
Why does the lamb love Mary so?
The eager children cry.
Why, Mary loves the lamb, you know,
The teacher did reply.
Hot cross buns!
Hot cross buns!
Hot cross buns!
One a penny,
Two a penny,
Hot cross buns!
If you have no daughters,
Give them to your sons;
One a penny,
Two a penny,
Hot cross buns!
Easter Eggs
A counting and colour rhyme
Five little Easter eggs, lovely colors wore,
Mother ate the blue one, then there were four.
Four little Easter eggs, two and two you see,
Daddy ate the red one, then there were three.
Three little Easter eggs, before I knew,
Sister ate the yellow one, then there were two.
Two little Easter eggs, oh what fun,
Brother ate the purple one, then there was one.
One little Easter egg, see me run,
I ate the green one, then there were none.
A Rabbit
Preschool children act out this rhyme
Can you make a rabbit
With two ears, so very long
hold up fingers
And let him hop, hop, hop about
hop
On legs so small and strong?
He nibbles, nibbles carrots
act out
For his dinner every day;
As soon as he has had enough
He scampers fast away!
hop on all fours
