Book: Bunny Cakes by Rosemary Wells

Flannel: “Five Little Bunnies”
Five little bunnies standing by the door,
One hopped away, and then there were four.
Four little bunnies sitting near a tree,
One hopped away, and then there were three.
Three little bunnies looking at you,
One hopped away, and then there were two.
Two little bunnies enjoying the sun,
One hopped away, and then there was one.
One little bunny sitting all alone,
He hopped away, and then there were none!

Scarf Song: “Four Corners”
My scarf has four corners,
Four corners has my scarf.
And if there weren’t four corners,
It would not be my…scarf.

Additional verses:
My hat…
My blanket…
My cape…
My pillow…

Scarf Song: “Wave Your Scarf” (Tune: “Row, Row, Row Your Boat”)
Wave, wave, wave your scarf,
As slowly as you can.
Wave your scarf, wave your scarf,
As slowly as you can.

Additional verses:
Wave, wave, wave your scarf, as quickly as you can…
Swing your arms (slowly, quickly)
Stomp your feet (slowly, quickly)
