Open, shut them

- Sit-down Activity - Here's a Bunny (fingerplay)
Here's a bunny with ears so funny(bend two fingers over thumb)
Here is his hole in the ground
(make hole with other arm at side of body)
When a noise he hears
(clap hands)
He pricks up his ears
(straighten fingers)
And jumps in his hole in the ground
(bunny ears jump into hole at side of body)
- Book #2 - What Can Rabbit See? by Lucy Cousins (lift-flap)
- Activity – I Saw a Little Rabbit (action rhyme)
(jump)
I saw his ears go flop, flop, flop
(flop hands on head)
I saw his eyes go blink, blink, blink
(point to eyes and blink)
I saw his nose go twink, twink, twink
(wiggle nose)
I said, "Little rabbit, won't you stay?"
(beckon with hand)
He looked at me and hopped away
(jump)
