It’s Easter this weekend, so after you have made some Hot Cross Buns, sit back and enjoy this rabbit song!  We will learn it in our story time this week.  Remember there is no Thursday Story Time this week while the school hols are still on, but please feel welcome to come to our Wednesday 10am session 🙂

 

小兔子乖乖 (Xiǎo tùzǐ guāiguāi) ‘Little Good Rabbits’ is a popular Chinese story and song.  A Mummy Rabbit tells her kids not to let the door open to anyone while she goes and gets them radishes to eat, and a wolf tries to trick them into thinking he is their mum, but the rabbits are so good and clever they’re onto it! Kids will enjoy this video and song!  Here are the words to sing along to:

 

小兔子乖乖 把门儿开开

快点儿开开我要进来

不开不开我不开

妈妈没回来谁来也不开

小兔子乖乖 把门儿开开

快点儿开开我要进来

就开就开我就开

妈妈回来了快点把门开

Xiǎo tùzǐ guāiguāi bǎménr kāi kāi
Kuài diǎnr kāi kāi wǒ yào jìnlái
Bù kāi bù kāi wǒ bù kāi
Māmā méi huílái shuí lái yě bù kāi
Xiǎo tùzǐ guāiguāi bǎménr kāi kāi
Kuài diǎnr kāi kāi wǒ yào jìnlái
Jiù kāi jiù kāi wǒ jiù kāi
Māmā huíláiliao kuài diǎn bǎmén kāi
