Easter Songs and Activites!


Fun Easter Ideas!

  • Create a map for each child leading to their Easter Basket! Or have their empty Easter basket by their bed with a map in it, and along the way they find things with their map too special treasures to add to their basket! Make sure if you have more than one child that you mark them somehow (such as with a specific color, or initial) so those items get left for the specific child.
  • If you are hiding the eggs outside, have someone go by under the window outside with bunny ears, and see if the children spy them from the window! They will be so excited to run outside and try and catch the Easter bunny before he hops away!
  • I came across a really fun one on Pinterest! Do a night time hunt with activated glow bracelets inside plastic eggs! It looks really awesome! Have to try this one!

Easter Songs!

Sleeping Bunnies
See the bunnies sleeping til it’s nearly noon
Come let us wake them with a merry tune
Oh so still, are they ill?
Wake up little bunnies, hop, hop, hop
Wake up little bunnies hop and stop!

Little Peter Rabbit
Little Peter Rabbit had a fly upon his nose,
Little Peter Rabbit had a fly upon his nose,
Little Peter Rabbit had a fly upon his nose,
And he flicked it and it flew away!
Continue with Peter Rabbit having a fly land on other body parts (head, arm toes)

Easter Bunny (Itsy Bitsy Spider)
The little Easter Bunny is hopping on his way
Coming to your house on Easter Sunday
He’ll hop and hop and hop
Until all the eggs are gone
Some are hidden by the house
And others on the lawn
The little Easter Bunny is hopping on his way
Hiding eggs for you to find on Easter Sunday!

Easter Eggs (Three Blind Mice)
Easter eggs, Easter eggs
Red and Blue, Green ones too
The Easter bunny hid them well
Where he hid them, he won’t tell
We’ll have to search and then we’ll yell
Easter Eggs! Easter Eggs!

Did you ever see a Bunny? (Did you ever see a lassie?)
Did you ever see a bunny, a bunny, a bunny?
Did you ever see a bunny hop this way and that?
Hop this way and that way and this way and that way?
Did you ever see a bunny hop this way and that?

Little Bunny Foo Foo – talk the part in italics, sing the other part
One morning Little Bunny Foo Foo woke up and said,
"Oh what a beautiful day! I think I will take a walk!"
Little Bunny Foo Foo went hoppin’ through the forest
Scooping up the field mice and tapping them on the head
Down came the good fairy and she said,
‘Little Bunny Foo Foo I don’t like your attitude
Scooping up the field mice and tapping them on the head.
I will give you three chances, and if you don’t stop,
I will turn you into a goose!’

The next morning Little Bunny Foo Foo woke up and said,
"Oh what a beautiful day! I think I will take a walk!"
Little Bunny Foo Foo went hoppin’ through the forest
Scooping up the field mice and tapping them on the head
Down came the good fairy and she said,
‘Little Bunny Foo Foo I don’t like your attitude
Scooping up the field mice and tapping them on the head.
I will give you two more chances, and if you don’t stop,
I will turn you into a goose!’

The next morning Little Bunny Foo Foo woke up and said,
"Oh what a beautiful day! I think I will take a walk!"
Little Bunny Foo Foo went hoppin’ through the forest
Scooping up the field mice and tapping them on the head
Down came the good fairy and she said,
‘Little Bunny Foo Foo I don’t like your attitude
Scooping up the field mice and tapping them on the head.
I will give you one more chance, and if you don’t stop,
I will turn you into a goose!’

The next morning Little Bunny Foo Foo woke up and said,
"Oh what a beautiful day! I think I will take a walk!"
Little Bunny Foo Foo went hoppin’ through the forest
Scooping up the field mice and kissing them on the head
Down came the good fairy and she said,
‘Little Bunny Foo Foo I really like your attitude
Scooping up the field mice and kissing them on the head!

BUNNNY
I know a rabbit with long, pink ears and Bunny is his name-o
B-U-N-N-Y, B-U-N-N-Y, B-U-N-N-Y
And Bunny is his name-o!

Twitchy nose
Soft, white fur
Floppy feet
Fluffy tail
