I am BEART excited about this resource. It contains two delightful crafts:
One for Bear Snores On with a bear sleeping in a cave.
Another for Time to Sleep with a Writing Topper and writing activity about how did bear know it was time to sleep.
The basic theme is Let’s Get Ready For Winter!!
Each story and the activities lead into a study of hibernation, migration, and signs of winter.
