I just got a baby bunny for my birthday Smile

I've had a rabbit for approx 6 years in the past, but that's when I was single. This bunny is an indoor pet. A few questions for those with experience:

1 - She is kept in a large pen during the day and let out when DD (1yo) is asleep. She runs away when I try get her back into her cage though. Any suggestions how to make the process quicker and smoother?
2 - Said DD (1yo) has no idea how to pet the bunny gently and is therefore allowed no petting access. How can she be taught to stroke it gently, or is it not gonna happen until a certain age?
3 - When bunny is allowed to run around, she sometimes zooms around from one end of the room to the other. She'll sometimes do that in her pen too. Is that a happy or anxious behaviour?

Thanks!
