Get ready for a hop-tastic, high-energy chase with the festive and fan-favorite “How to Catch the Easter Bunny” by Adam Wallace and Andy Elkerton!
The Easter Bunny is fast, he’s sneaky, and he’s been doing this for years. As he zips through neighborhood gardens and living rooms, he encounters a series of wild and wacky traps designed by some very creative kids. From colander catchers to shiny decoys and super-sweet decoys, the traps are set—but can anyone actually catch the legendary bunny in action?
With vibrant illustrations and zippy rhymes, this story is a masterclass in “expect the unexpected.” Will he get caught, or is he just too quick for the average trap? You’ll have to follow the trail of jellybeans to the very end to see!
In this video, children will learn about:
- 🍀 STEM & Engineering: Analyzing the “traps” and thinking about how to improve designs to solve a problem.
- 🍀 Persistence & Confidence: Seeing how the Easter Bunny stays calm and creative even when things get tricky.
- 🍀 Rhyme & Rhythm: Engaging with the upbeat, poetic flow that makes read-alouds memorable and fun.
This read-aloud is a springtime staple and the ultimate spark for a classroom STEM challenge! It’s the perfect way to get kids excited about building their own “bunny traps,” practicing creative writing, or simply enjoying a colorful celebration of one of the season’s most elusive heroes.
