Easter Babies
Baby rabbits go hoppity hop.
Baby hares go jump and leap!
Mother hen lays a big brown egg
and CRACK! – here's a chick
going cheep, cheep, cheep.
Let's Play : bounce for baby rabbitsBaby hares go jump and leap!
Mother hen lays a big brown egg

going cheep, cheep, cheep.

cup two hands together for an "egg".
open/close fingers for chick cheep.
Fun Fact : a baby hare is called a leveret.
