00:00:00.160 --> 00:00:06.040
The Easter bunnies lost chocolate eggs. Once upon a time,
2
00:00:06.320 --> 00:00:10.439
in a magical forest, there lived a very special animal,
3
00:00:11.119 --> 00:00:15.560
the Easter Bunny. Every year, he would hide chocolate eggs
4
00:00:15.679 --> 00:00:20.280
all over the forest for children to find on Easter Day.
5
00:00:20.320 --> 00:00:23.480
It was a tradition that brought joy to children and
6
00:00:23.600 --> 00:00:29.519
grown ups alike. But one year, something terrible happened. The
7
00:00:29.600 --> 00:00:32.719
Easter Bunny had gathered all the chocolate eggs he needed
8
00:00:32.799 --> 00:00:36.439
to hide, but on his way through the forest, he
9
00:00:36.560 --> 00:00:41.119
tripped and fell, and all the chocolate eggs rolled away
10
00:00:41.399 --> 00:00:48.000
and got lost, every single one. The Easter Bunny was devastated.
11
00:00:48.520 --> 00:00:51.640
He didn't know what to do. He was afraid that
12
00:00:51.799 --> 00:00:56.280
Easter was ruined and that children everywhere would be disappointed.
13
00:00:57.200 --> 00:01:01.799
He sat down on a rock and he cried. Just then,
14
00:01:02.079 --> 00:01:06.040
a little boy came walking through the forest. He noticed
15
00:01:06.159 --> 00:01:09.400
right away that the Easter bunny was upset, and he
16
00:01:09.480 --> 00:01:13.799
came closer and asked what was wrong. The Easter bunny
17
00:01:13.879 --> 00:01:19.079
explained everything, the trip, the fall, the eggs rolling away
18
00:01:19.239 --> 00:01:23.640
into the forest. The little boy didn't hesitate for even
19
00:01:23.719 --> 00:01:27.560
a moment. I'll help you find them, he said, all
20
00:01:27.599 --> 00:01:31.159
of them, and so the Easter Bunny and the little
21
00:01:31.159 --> 00:01:35.640
boy set off together on their adventure. As they walked
22
00:01:35.640 --> 00:01:39.319
through the magical forest, the little boy looked up and asked,
23
00:01:40.159 --> 00:01:43.519
do you know where the first egg might be? The
24
00:01:43.560 --> 00:01:47.359
easter bunny thought for a moment, his long ears twitching.
25
00:01:48.400 --> 00:01:52.200
I believe the first egg rolled near the river. We'll
26
00:01:52.200 --> 00:01:55.079
have to cross a few bridges to get there, but
27
00:01:55.200 --> 00:01:59.680
be careful, they can be rickety. The little boy nodded,
28
00:01:59.799 --> 00:02:04.079
and on they walked. Before long, they came across a
29
00:02:04.120 --> 00:02:08.560
family of squirrels. The easter bunny politely asked if they
30
00:02:08.560 --> 00:02:12.919
had seen any chocolate eggs rolling by, but the squirrels
31
00:02:13.039 --> 00:02:17.879
only chattered and scurried up the trees. The two friends
32
00:02:17.879 --> 00:02:22.120
continued on, and soon the sound of rushing water told
33
00:02:22.120 --> 00:02:26.199
them the river was close. They crossed the first bridge
34
00:02:26.240 --> 00:02:30.960
with ease, but as they approached the second bridge, they stopped.
35
00:02:31.800 --> 00:02:35.840
A plank was missing right in the middle. The little
36
00:02:35.840 --> 00:02:40.159
boy looked worried, but the easter bunny smiled his warm,
37
00:02:40.319 --> 00:02:44.960
steady smile and said, don't worry. I'll hop across and
38
00:02:45.080 --> 00:02:48.479
grab the egg. Just hold on to my tail and
39
00:02:48.599 --> 00:02:53.159
I'll pull you safely over. The little boy reached out
40
00:02:53.199 --> 00:02:56.599
and held tight to the easter bunny's fluffy white tail,
41
00:02:57.400 --> 00:03:03.599
and carefully one hop, two hops, three, the easter bunny
42
00:03:03.599 --> 00:03:08.360
carried them both to the other side. There, nestled beside
43
00:03:08.439 --> 00:03:12.960
a mossy tree was the first egg. The easter bunny
44
00:03:13.000 --> 00:03:17.800
lifted it gently into his basket. As they hopped back across,
45
00:03:17.960 --> 00:03:22.000
they spotted a family of otters splashing and playing in
46
00:03:22.039 --> 00:03:25.919
the river below. The easter bunny called out to ask
47
00:03:26.000 --> 00:03:30.280
if they'd seen any eggs. The otters nodded and called
48
00:03:30.319 --> 00:03:33.639
back that they had spotted one near the old beaver
49
00:03:33.759 --> 00:03:38.319
dam just downstream, and so the little boy and the
50
00:03:38.360 --> 00:03:41.759
easter bunny followed the river until they heard the sound
51
00:03:41.840 --> 00:03:46.560
of splashing and chewing and building. At the beaver dam,
52
00:03:46.840 --> 00:03:50.599
a whole group of beavers was hard at work. The
53
00:03:50.719 --> 00:03:54.159
easter bunny asked if anyone had seen a chocolate egg.
54
00:03:55.319 --> 00:03:59.080
The beavers looked at each other, then the biggest one said,
55
00:03:59.719 --> 00:04:03.280
we haven't seen any chocolate eggs, but will help you
56
00:04:03.360 --> 00:04:07.800
look if we can each have one. The easter bunny
57
00:04:07.879 --> 00:04:11.560
laughed softly. I'll give you each a piece of chocolate
58
00:04:11.680 --> 00:04:15.159
if you help us find the eggs, he said. The
59
00:04:15.199 --> 00:04:19.680
beavers eagerly agreed and together, they all searched the muddy
60
00:04:19.680 --> 00:04:24.600
banks until there two eggs right at the edge of
61
00:04:24.639 --> 00:04:29.360
the river, half hidden in the reeds. And so it went.
62
00:04:30.079 --> 00:04:33.279
The Easter Bunny and the little boy continued through the
63
00:04:33.399 --> 00:04:38.839
magical forest, meeting animal after animal, each one with their
64
00:04:38.879 --> 00:04:43.879
own personality, each one helping in their own way. The
65
00:04:43.959 --> 00:04:47.680
little boy learned so much about the wonderful creatures who
66
00:04:47.720 --> 00:04:52.839
called this forest home. Finally, at last they found the
67
00:04:52.959 --> 00:04:57.240
very last egg. It was tucked inside a hidden burrow
68
00:04:57.639 --> 00:05:00.439
where a family of rabbits had been keeping its safe
69
00:05:00.519 --> 00:05:04.720
and sound. The little boy threw his hands in the air.
70
00:05:05.360 --> 00:05:09.920
We did it. We found all the eggs. The Easter
71
00:05:10.000 --> 00:05:15.240
Bunny smiled, his eyes shining. Yes, we did, and we
72
00:05:15.319 --> 00:05:18.759
couldn't have done it without you. Thank you for being
73
00:05:18.800 --> 00:05:25.480
my friend and for saving Easter. The Easter Bunny was overjoyed. Together,
74
00:05:25.800 --> 00:05:29.120
he and the little boy returned to the Easter Bunny's home,
75
00:05:29.959 --> 00:05:33.879
and this time the little Boy helped hide every single egg,
76
00:05:34.639 --> 00:05:39.279
tucked under leaves, nestled in tree roots, hidden in tufts
77
00:05:39.319 --> 00:05:43.120
of soft grass, so that not one would be lost again.
78
00:05:44.360 --> 00:05:48.439
On Easter morning, children from all over the magical forest
79
00:05:48.680 --> 00:05:52.920
came running out to search, and they found them, every
80
00:05:53.079 --> 00:05:57.360
last one. The Easter Bunny stood at the edge of
81
00:05:57.399 --> 00:06:01.720
the forest, watching the children laugh and cheer, and he
82
00:06:01.920 --> 00:06:06.199
felt the happiest he had ever felt. He turned to
83
00:06:06.240 --> 00:06:11.680
the little boy and said thank you truly, and the
84
00:06:11.759 --> 00:06:16.920
little boy just smiled. From that day on, the Easter
85
00:06:17.040 --> 00:06:21.600
Bunny and the little boy were the very best of friends.
86
00:06:21.680 --> 00:06:25.199
Every year, as the flowers began to bloom and the
87
00:06:25.240 --> 00:06:29.360
air turned sweet with spring, they would hide the chocolate
88
00:06:29.399 --> 00:06:34.240
eggs together, making sure that Easter was celebrated with joy
89
00:06:34.399 --> 00:06:40.040
and happiness in the magical forest, and it was every
90
00:06:40.439 --> 00:06:41.480
single year.
