“Ouch!” cried Pink Nose, jumping up. “Who’s doing that?”
He acted so queerly that Flop Ear could not help laughing, and his brother heard him from behind the stump.
“Ah, it is you; is it?” cried Pink Nose. “I’ll fix you for spoiling my sleep!”
He chased after Flop Ear, only in fun, of course, and around among the trees the brother rabbits ran.
“Now Pink Nose is playing tag!” cried Snuggle, and so he was, whether he wanted to or not.
Then the three rabbits played together, having lots of fun in their own way, jumping over each other’s backs as boys play leap-frog. Sometimes one would hide down in among the leaves, and the others would look for him. This was the game of hide-and-go-seek, you see.
At different times Mr. and Mrs. Bunny would tell their children the things all rabbits must learn. Just as your folks tell you about cleaning your teeth, and washing your hands and faces, so the rabbit children were told how to do things to keep themselves clean. Of course they did not clean their teeth, but they washed themselves with their tongues, as cats do.
