A rabbit lives in a burrow.
A den is the home of a lion, as mentioned in the rhyme: 'Brother Lion, Brother Lion... I live in a den'.
If the teacher mentioned a cow in the rhyme, the cow would live in a cowshed, as the rhyme states, 'Mummy Cow, Mummy Cow... I live in a cowshed'.
The 'Where Do You Live?' rhyme helps students understand animal habitats by directly linking each animal to its specific home in a simple, memorable format. For example, it teaches that 'Father Rabbit' lives 'in a burrow' and 'Brother Lion' lives 'in a den'. It also shows that 'Sister Parrot' lives 'in a nest' and 'Baby Spider' lives 'in my web'. This direct association makes it easy for students to learn and recall where different animals reside.
