Hop along (to the tune of "Row, row, row your boat", found here)
Hop, hop, hop along,
Or bounce on someone's knee.
Higher and higher and higher,
Bunny hop with me!
Joe the Bunny (from Step by Step Childcare)
I'm a little bunny, my name is Joe.
I hop fast, and I hope slow! (hop fast then slow)
Whenever I get sleepy, my ears droop low, (make droopy ears with hands)
But after my nap, up they go! (lift "ears" up)
Did you ever see a bunny? (to the tune of "Did you ever see a lassie?", inspired by the penguin version at Perpetual Preschool)
Did you ever see a bunny, a bunny, a bunny,
Did you ever see a bunny jump this way and that?
Jump this way and that way, and this way and that way.

If you're hoppy and you know it (from Sunflower Storytime)
If you’re hoppy and you know it, hop around
If you’re hoppy and you know it, hop around
If you’re hoppy and you know it
And you really want to show it
If you’re hoppy and you know it, hop around.
…hop around
…shake your tail
…stomp your feet
…wiggle your nose
Bunny Hop song on CD
Funny Bunny Hop (from Preschool Education)
Funny little bunny goes hop, hop, hop!
Funny little bunny please stop, stop, stop!
Wiggle your ears and crinkle your nose.
Then wiggle, wiggle, wiggle, right down to your toes!

Bunny in the hole,
Sits so still,
Will he come out?
Yes he will!
Craft: We decorated a bunny template with cotton balls.
Literacy tip of the week: Rhyming stories help your child identify the sounds of language. This skill becomes increasingly important as your child is learning how to read.
