Easter Left Right Passing Game Story

This is the tale of the Easter Bunny and how he got ready for Easter just in the Knick of time.

Right after the first tulips emerged from their winter sleep, Mrs. Robin left her nest and flew right to the Easter Bunny’s place like she did every year. “Yooo whoo, “she sang. “Easter Bunny, you only have 3 weeks left until the big day! Are you ready?”

Well, Easter Bunny was fast asleep, because he forgot to set his alarm clock the right way. Just then, Mrs. Robin noticed a juicy worm wiggling right behind the tulips and left in a hurry to snatch it up. So, on the Easter Bunny slept.

Oh me, oh my. Only 3 weeks left and Easter Bunny was still asleep! Can we help him wake up? Let’s try!

Everyone say, “Wakey, wakey Easter Bunny! You’re still asleep, and that’s not funny!”

I’m sad to say, this did not work. There is still time left, so let’s see what happens next.

Mr. Mole left his warm snuggly bed to search for delicious grubs and it just so happened, those grubs were right by Easter Bunny’s house. “Mm Mm Yummy,” exclaimed Mr. Mole loudly as he crunched and munched on those grubs. As Mr. Mole sniffed the air for more, he smelled Easter Bunny’s candy instead and thought. Shouldn’t Easter Bunny be busy filling eggs with this candy?

“Where are you, Easter Bunny? Why have you left your candy here? I thought Easter was right around the corner!” (Now you say it with Mr. Mole and maybe we can wake up Easter Bunny this time!) “Where are you, Easter Bunny? Why have you left your candy here? I thought Easter was right around the corner!”

How can the Easter Bunny sleep right through all of this? Mr. Mole gave up and went searching for more yummy things to eat.

Easter Bunny snoozed on, “Zzzzz zzzzz zzzz.” (Make snoring sounds and ask players to make snoring sounds.)

Finally, there was one day left until Easter and all the forest friends realized Easter Bunny was still asleep. They quickly trotted, crawled, flew, and hopped to his bedside and with all their voices combined shouted, “Wakey, wakey for goodness sakey! Easter’s almost here so shake a leggy!” (Now you say it, too! “Wakey, wakey for goodness sakey! Easter’s almost here so shake a leggy!”)

Did it work? Yes, it did! Right out of bed Easter Bunny sprang and right to work he got. The other forest animals pitched in to help and right before the sun rose on Easter morning, the last eggs were delivered.

And that is the story of the sleepy Easter Bunny and his kind forest friends who helped save Easter.
