Preschool R is For Rabbit Activity

Spring. Easter. Sunshine. Flowers blooming. It is definitely a cute little rabbit time of year.

R is for rabbit and coincidentally the letter R makes for some terribly cute rabbits.

Supplies needed for Rabbit Rs:

• Construction paper with a Capital and lowercase R drawn in block letters
• Pom poms in pink, white, gray or brown (for noses and tails)
• Rabbit fur colored crayons, (brown, gray, white, and black are good)
• Brown, black, or white pipe cleaner cut into about 2 inch pieces (each R pages needs 4 whiskers for each r)
• Construction paper in a coordinating color with ears drawn on, each R page needs 2 sets of ears
• Scissors
• Glue
• googly eyes

Step 1: Color in the Rs with crayon.

Step 2: Cut out ears. Glue a set of ears onto the very top of both the upper case R and the lower case r.

Step 3: Glue eyes onto the rabbits. The upper case R rabbit gets two eyes inside of the top part of the letter R and the lower case r rabbit is in profile so it gets one at the top of the r.

Step 4: Using pom poms glue on the rabbit’s noses and tails. The lower case r rabbit’s nose goes on the tip of the lower case r.The upper case R rabbits nose goes just below it’s eyes, at the top of the R. The tails go on the backside of both the lower and upper case Rs.

Step 5: Glue on four pipe cleaner pieces onto each r rabbits face coming from their noses. The whiskers should look like little v’s  coming out from both noses.

Step 6: Let the R rabbits lay flat to dry and allow them to dry thoroughly before moving or hanging up.
