Bunny bedtime stories

Bunny stories with a roof and three plops

Fern wants a tall tent roof; Tansy wants a snug nook to hear the rain. Moss loves Dottie and wishes Mama would notice his biggest hiccup, too. Pip’s Easter eggs keep disappearing from their hiding places and turning up in the basket. Choose a blanket tent, a family bedtime, or a farmyard game with Hattie.

A rain story, a family feeling, or a laugh

Fern and Tansy’s tent story suits six and seven. Each gives up a favorite cushion before there is room for both voices under the roof. Moss’s family story also suits six and seven; he can love Dottie and still miss the old bedtimes. Pip’s Easter game suits a listener around four and ends in laughter with Hattie. Choose the tent or Moss for a quieter finish, or the wooden eggs for a lively last joke.

  • What did Moss miss about the old bedtimes?
  • How did Pip know where Hattie had hidden the eggs?
