Looking for a typical English children song for Easter?

I think an Alleluia song is simple and fitting.

Here is one example:

"Halle, halle, halle" a Traditional Caribbean Song

With love in Christ.

Blue or hazel eyes, blonde to mousy hair colour. Pale skin colour. Demure and polite. Slim build 24 inch waist average, 5ft 5 ins tall. Dont really think nowadays there is an ideal English typical, due to so many factors, main one being foreign parentage, which immediately rattles the cage of skin and eye colour. Diet and dress follows closely.

Rhymes for easter:

Five little Easter eggs, lovely colors wore,

Mother ate the blue one, then there were four.

Four little Easter eggs, two and two you see,

Daddy ate the red one, then there were three.

Three little Easter eggs, before I knew,

Sister ate the yellow one, then there were two.

Two little Easter eggs, oh what fun,

Brother ate the purple one, then there was one.

One little Easter egg, see me run,

I ate the green one, then there were none.

children act out this rhyme

Can you make a rabbit

With two ears, so very long

hold up fingers

And let him hop, hop, hop about

hop

On legs so small and strong?

He nibbles, nibbles carrots

act out

For his dinner every day;

As soon as he has had enough

He scampers fast away!

hop on all fours

'Jesus rode a Donkey into town' is quite a sweet song - but only if the children are Christian in religious believes.

I believe the words are

Jesus rode a Donkey into town

Many folks came from miles around.

What a sight to see!

A man who sets men free!

Riding on a Donkey into town.

We used to sing that at school - and we'd make palms out of green paper and wave them as we sang.

Here comes Peter Cotton Tail.

Jesus lover me maybe ?

"This Little Light of Mine" is a pretty easy one, and it's easily editable, so if you wanted to shorten it, or add different stuff to it...you could do it easily enough.
