Teddy Bear Storytime
I love doing a bear storytime. I love it even more when I mix Teddy Bears into my storytime. I have a huge bin of Teddy Bears that I use for songs with the children at the end. If you ever want to borrow my big bin of bears, please let me know. I've been collecting teddy bears throughout my career and they are all different and unique and some not-a-bear teddy bears. I always talk about how it's winter time and the bears are now hibernating (great word to boost their vocabulary) before the reading books. It's so much fun!
This was the favorite for storytime this morning. Poor bear is so tired, but his friends, two raccoons, really want him to play in the snow with them before he sleeps all winter long.
Spring is Here by Will Hillenbrand
This was a fun one to read. It's spring and Mole wants his friend Bear to watch up. He tries everything and it's not until makes him a big pancake breakfast before Bear wakes up. Poor Mole is so tired from trying to wake up Bear that he gets back to sleep at the end.
Where's My Teddy? by Jez Alborough
I really like this story. Poor Eddie has left his teddy in the woods, when he goes to find Eddie he finds that his teddy is now HUGE.
Songs I use doing my teddy bear storytime:
Two Little Brown Bears, Sitting on a Hill, One Name Jack and One Name Jill
Run away Jack....
Two Little Brown Bears, digging in the Snow, One Name Fast and One Name Slow
Run away Fast....
Two Little Brown Bears feeling quite proud, one name Quiet and one name Loud
Run away Quiet...
