Easter fun for the Children

Easter Treasure Hunt - Letters and Parcels come and go. Stamps are struck in neat rows. Red post box or county near. You'll find the next bunny, do not fear. A sign on the the school leading you to the next clue on the Easter treasure hunt.

The other day while walking Ted the greyhound, we came across a cardboard white Rabbit. It turns out someone has setup a treasure hunt for the children.

The first Easter White Rabbit in front of the fence by the village school
Beneath the conker tree so tall, Where Autumn's treasures drop and fall. Wander on, don't lose your way. Where village notices have their say. Pause a while and look around, your next bunny will be found.
Where children laugh and feet take flight. Where swings go whooshing left and right. Look near, but not too wide. Your next bunny is tucked beside.

From the school, to the post office then on to the crossroads, each bunny had a poem to lead you to the next.

White cardboard bunny next to the conker tree.
Where rackets swing, and balls take flight. Across the net with speed and might. Look nearby, don't rush on through. Your next bunny is close to you.
White rabbit near the play park
Where open play stretches wide, games and laughter can be tied. Through gates and gaps, the way is clear. To a grassy space both far and near. Step on through and take a look. Your next bunny is hidden in a nook.
Another cardboard white rabbit near the tennis courts.
Where bats and balls and players meet. A shelter spot beside a pitch so neat. Pause a moment, look around. And your next bunny will be found.
By the model railway that runs around the playing field.
Where tiny trains prepare to go With whistles soft and engines low. A platform small, a waiting line, All aboard, right on time, watch the tracks and look around, your next bunny is near the ground.
Bunny next to the cricket pavilion.
By the model railway that runs on Sundays to give children a ride. Where hammer's echo once would ring. A hidden bunny lies waiting. And South Scarle Lane - start navigating.

From the post office to the village cross roads, to the swings and then to the village tennis courts. From there around the main playing field with the mini vintage trains and tennis courts.

Where ancient stone and silence meet. And whispered prayers in stillness stay. Seek your next bunny beneath your feet. Where hymns and incense drift and pray.
White rabbit near the church.

It was then to the old blacksmiths and off to the church.

Where three roads meet & waters glide. A quiet crossing plain and true. Pause where streams and pathways guide. Your next bunny waits for you.
and another cardboard white bunny.
The bunny by the church.

Now down the old church lane where the paths, road and streams all meet.

Where pencils write and pages turn. A place where curious minds all learn. Look around where voices cheer, Your final bunny is waiting here!
The bunny of church lane.

So down church lane to school lane and back to the start to find the last bunny and claim our prize.

Hippy Hop. Hooray for you! You've solved the puzzle, well done too. Every bunny you've found with care. Now there's a secret step to share. Unjumble the letters, make the right word. Then take your map, fold or furled. Pop in the box today. And a special Easter Prize could come your way. So off you go young bunny bright. Your clever brain is a shining light.
The final bunny, outside the school fence.

And so the end of the trail.

If you noticed each bunny had a letter:

R, C, T, A, E, O, L, I, E, N, B

So now to work out the anagram. Can you get it?
