Activities: The bunny hop is always fun this time of year. I have found the music on several cds.
Crafts: Bunny Ears are popular. This is the easiest way I have found to make them. Use a two inch strip construction paper ( your choice of colors) Fit it to the child’s head and staple it in a circle to fit. Have the child draw and cut out the two ears. Staple or glue them to the band.

This is a popular game where all participants sit in a circle. The person chosen as “it” goes around the circle tapping each person on the head saying”duck”. After a few ducks “it” taps a person and says,”goose” and starts running. The goose gets up and chases “it”, trying to tag “it” before reaching the space where “goose” was sitting. If Goose is successful in tagging , the game goes on as it was. If Goose is unsuccessful “goose” Becomes “it”, and the game goes on.
