Why not add some more bear fun? Hopefully your children have been busy hunting for bears (see previous post)!
Grab some strawberries and watch this:
I have heard from some parents that they are feeling overwhelmed. I can only imagine! I am not sure how parents are managing small children, homework, Zoom, meals and their own work (I am not doing a great job and I no longer have small children!).
So… let’s make it easy. For this book just print these strawberries – one sheet or 20 – it is up to you!
Ask your child to color them. If you have the energy, cut them out and hide them for a strawberry hunt! You might also take a moment and practice counting with them. And you can always ask them to “disguise” a strawberry.

Then if your child is brave enough, send them outside to look for any clues that a bear has been around. #imagination! Sit back, eat some strawberries and relax!
