A truly classical cute story about friendship, a simple story helping very young children identify with their feelings.
Rabbit is playing hide-and-seek with his friends. He searches under the blanket and among the flowers. But will he be able to find everyone?

Rabbit’s Hide-and-Seek will give children a chance to practice counting to ten with Rabbit, just as they would if playing hide-and-seek for real. Then they can see whether they can find the hidden animals.
