Free Rabbit Life Cycle Worksheet for Kids
As it is the Chinese year of the rabbit I have created a free rabbit life cycle worksheet to learn more about them.
In these 8-page life cycle worksheets all about the rabbit, you will find a life cycle of a rabbit, an information report, opinion writing, rabbit research, and more. These are perfect for 2nd – 4th-grade students. But can be adapted for younger or older students.
This is a no-preparation download, so if you have left it until the last minute (like I normally do!) this will be perfect for the kids at home or school.

Interesting Facts about Rabbits
- A baby rabbit is not called a bunny but is called a kitten, or kit for short.
- A rabbit’s teeth never stop growing.
- When rabbits are happy they perform a binky, which is an athletic leap where they perform twists and kicks mid-air.
- As their eyes are on the side of their heads they can nearly see all the way around them.
- Similar to cats, rabbits purr when they are relaxed.
- Carrots are not a natural part of their diet, in fact, they could get an upset stomach if they eat too many.
- Mother rabbits are pregnant for between 28-31 days, giving birth to up to 14 baby rabbits in a single litter.

I love this opinion writing worksheet. Which spring animal do you like better a rabbit or a chick? You will also enjoy our free life cycle of a chicken worksheets.
The children will need access to the internet to complete the information about rabbits. They need to find:
- In what countries can you find rabbits in their natural habitat?
- How long do rabbits live? In the wild, and in captivity
- How many babies do they typically have?
- The type of birth, is it egg or live?
- What food do rabbits eat? How do they get their food?
- What is the population of rabbits? What is their biggest threat?
We also use the book Life Cycles for our studies they do not have the rabbit but we still love it. We also love to use this life cycle kit, but of course, they do not have rabbits either.
Research the different stages of a rabbit’s life cycle.
The next two pages involve labeling and coloring the rabbit.
Label the parts of a rabbit worksheet, whiskers, eyes, hind legs, tail, body, and forelegs. Then color in the rabbit.
On the next page, the children have to color the different stages of the rabbit’s life, and then label which is which.
Scroll to the bottom of the page to grab all 8 free life cycle of a rabbit worksheets.
We love to add the Life Cycles book to our studies.
Rabbit crafts
The first page is a fun rabbit craft that involves coloring, folding, cutting, and gluing.
I recommend coloring the images in first, but if you are working with much younger children then you might want to cut them in advance.
Cut up the rabbit craft, younger children may need some help.
Sort the images into the correct order and glue them under the nest. When you have glued the pictures you need to fold them along the dotted lines.
The next rabbit craft is the life cycle of a rabbit spinner wheel.
Cut out the two circles, and make sure on the rabbit life cycle image you cut out the blank quarter.
Place the rabbit life cycle image with the quarter cut out on top of the other image and add a brass fastener to the middle.
Younger children will also enjoy our rabbit handprint template.
The kids are going to love these rabbit books too:
- National Geographic Hop Bunny
- Everything you should know about rabbits
- And one of the best books ever written: The tale of Peter Rabbit
