Big Green Rabbit Makes our Week

A while back I posted some videos of the boys singing the archaeopteryx song from the show Big Green Rabbit. Folks from the show contacted me, and asked if the boys would like a package of goodies from Charlie, the Big Green Rabbit—no strings attached. Well, the package has arrived and has given us all a much needed boost. This week has been a trying one; we’ve all got colds, Jim broke his wrist, and the weather has turned to bitter winter (forecast was for a –42C windchill this morning!) with a good dump of snow. The boys are thrilled with their gifts from Charlie. (As I write this they are wearing their new Big Green Rabbit shirts, dancing and singing along to songs in one of the DVDs that they received). Here’s some pics:

Personal message from Charlie

There were lots of goodies included: the personal note from Charlie (which the boys loved!), t-shirts, wristbands, DVDs, a music CD, tattoos…

Gifts from Charlie

Here’s my attempt to get a picture of the boys smiling a ‘Thank you!” to Charlie in their new shirts. They each wanted to hold something in the picture, but as you can see, they couldn’t keep their eyes off the CD or DVD to look at the camera and smile. They were that excited.

Look at the camera, boys. The camera! :-)

After putting the DVD and CD back down, I finally got a decent picture. What a lovely surprise—thanks so much, Charlie and folks at the Big Green Rabbit!

Happy boys!

The package from Big Green Rabbit was awesome and quite unexpected. I had thought they would send a t-shirt or two. Both our boys are having a blast with the DVDs and other goodies that they received. Thanks, Big Green Rabbit, for putting smiles on our sons' faces!

I love this post. Your children's faces are a picture! They look so thrilled. And they look really smart in their new T-shirts!
PS - Is that a spinning wheel you have got tucked away in the background?

You can find the songs on youtube, and episodes and clips on their website. They are on PBS stations in some parts of the country too...but not ours. :-(
