Sleeping Bunnies
(kids lie on the floor pretending to sleep)
See the little bunnies sleeping, ’til it’s nearly noon
Come and let us gently wake them with a merry tune
Oh, how still. Are they ill?
Wake up soon…..
(kids wake up and hop around the room like bunnies)
Hop little bunnies, hop hop hop!
Hop little bunnies, hop hop hop!
Hop little bunnies, hop hop hop!
Hop little bunnies, hop…and…stop!
(repeat as many times as you like!)
Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star
Twinkle, twinkle, little star (open and close hands like flashing motion)
How I wonder what you are (shrug shoulders and put hands out palm up)
Up above the world so high (point up to the sky)
Like a diamond in the sky (put your thumbs together, and pointer fingers together, to make a diamond shape)
Twinkle, twinkle, little star (open and close hands like flashing motion)
How I wonder what you are! (shrug shoulders and put hands out palm up)
