Flannel Friday: Five Little Rabbits Finger Puppets

by rovingfiddlehead on May 20, 2011

When I saw these bun­nies on Purl Bee, I knew I wanted to make some. Then my mom came for a visit and adorable bunny fin­ger pup­pets were cre­ated through min­i­mal effort of my own. Other than my enor­mous felt col­lec­tion. Thanks Mom!

A pat­tern and full direc­tions can be found at Purl Bee. Not being full-fledged Martha Stew­arts, we attached pom poms on the end and did not make our own!

This rhyme works well with them.

Five lit­tle rab­bits sit­ting by the door.
One hopped away, and then there were four.

Four lit­tle rab­bits moved under a tree.
One hopped away, and then there were three.

Three lit­tle rab­bits drink­ing morn­ing dew.
One hopped away, and then there were two.

Two lit­tle rab­bits rest­ing in the sun.
One hopped away, and then there was one.

One lit­tle rab­bit isn’t any fun.
He hopped away to find the oth­ers,
and then there were none.

For this week’s Flan­nel Fri­day round up, visit Sto­ry­time Katie.

    Oh, my good­ness! Those rab­bits are just pre­cious. I absolutely can­not wait to try those, though I have to admit that I am not a par­tic­u­larly good sewer.
