Funny Bunny Hop
Funny, little bunny goes hop, hop, hop!
Funny little bunny, please stop,stop,stop!
Wiggle your ears and crinkle your nose.
Then wiggle, wiggle, wiggle right down to your toes.

Here’s a Little Bunny (with bunny finger puppet)
--Lapsit Services for the Very Young II by Linda L. Ernst. New York: Neal-Schuman Publishers, Inc, 2001.

Did you Ever see a Bunny?
Sung to: "Did You Ever See a Lassie?"
Did you ever see a bunny, a bunny, a bunny,
Did you ever see a bunny, that hops -- so slow?
He hops this way and that way,
And this way, and that way.
Did you ever see a bunny, that hops so slow?

Come Under My Umbrella
Come under my umbrella,
Umbrella, umbrella.
Gently wave the parachute up and down.
Come under my umbrella,
It’s starting to storm.
Move parachute faster.
There’s thunder and lightning
And wind and rain.
Come under my umbrella,
It’s starting to storm.

Row Boat, Row Boat
Row boat, row boat go so slow (wave the chute slowly).
Row boat, row boat go so fast (shake the chute fast).
Row boat, row boat the waves are getting worse (shake fast again).
Row boat, row boat put it in reverse (stop the chute by pulling towards you).
--Kendra at Read, Sing, Play

London Bridge
London Bridge is falling down.
Falling down, falling down.
London Bridge is falling down,
My fair lady.
--Traditional
