Rhyme: “A Little Brown Rabbit Popped Out of the Ground” (Tune: “There Was an Old Lady”)
A little brown rabbit popped out of the ground,
Wriggled his whiskers and looked around.
Another small rabbit who lived in the grass
Popped his head out and watched him pass.
Then both the small rabbits went hoppity hop,
Hoppity, hoppity, hop,
Till they came to a wall and had to stop.
Then both the small rabbits turned themselves round,
And hurried off home to their holes in the ground.
