Bears

Storytime in the Children's Area again because the elevator is still broken, but at least this time I felt more prepared because I knew there was a chance I'd be upstairs again.  It went so much better than last week's!! Whew!!

Hello, Hello

If You Were a Panda Bear

by Wendell and Florence Minor

Two Little Panda Bears

Two little panda bears sitting on a hill

One named Jack; one named Jill

Run away Jack; run away Jill

Come back Jack; come back Jill

Peering at the sky...Low and High

Sitting on a pole...Fast and Slow

Sitting on a car...Near and Far

Looking at a cloud...Quiet and Loud

My Hands

Where's My Teddy?

by Jez Alborough

Teddy Bear, Teddy Bear

Turn around

Touch the ground

Dance on your toes

Touch your nose

Reach up high

Touch the sky

Bend down low

Touch your toes

Jump up now

Take a bow

Stomp your feet

Take a seat

My Hands Say Goodbye

I had quickly made up a bear scavenger hunt for children to do.  I hid pictures of a panda bear, brown bear, black bear, polar bear, and a teddy bear in the children's area for them to find and each had a half sheet of paper they could mark off the ones they found.  They absolutely love it!
