Little Peter Rabbit



Tune: Battle Hymn of the Republic

Little Peter Rabbit had a fly upon his nose,
Little Peter Rabbit had a fly upon his nose,
Little Peter Rabbit had a fly upon his nose,
And he swished it and he swashed it,
'Til the fly flew away.

Alternate version:
Little Peter Rabbit had a fly upon his nose,
Little Peter Rabbit had a fly upon his nose,
Little Peter Rabbit had a fly upon his nose,
Til he PFFFT and it flew away. (for PFFFT, blow air through your closed mouth and make a funny noise while exagerating your facial expression)

Each time you sing "Little Peter Rabbit" make bunny ears on your head and wiggle them with the beat.

Bat at your nose with your open hand.
Flap your hands close to your body like funny little wings and give a little hoppy jump as though you're flying away.
