We're Going on a Bear Hunt

Theme from September-December 2020

• Read “We’re Going on a Bear Hunt” and/or watch the Bear Hunt video (see below). Learn the words off by heart. This is great for language development!

• Re-tell the story and use different resources around the home to make the sounds. Pots and pans make great instruments!

• Make a map of the bear hunt. Follow a map around the garden or the house, making obstacles to go over, under and through.

• Hide a teddy around the house or garden. Give clues as to where he or she could be. Is he under something? Is she inside something?

• Let your child be the teacher and teach teddy! Check the weather and sing the Welcome Time song. How many teddies are here today?

• Watch your favourite programme with teddy, and talk about it afterwards.

• Draw a picture of teddy.

• Make clothes or superhero masks for teddy.

• Make the swishy swashy grass by cutting paper into strips. If you have green paint you could paint it first.

• Play with water and make a splish splosh sound.

• Take toys into the bath and act out the family going through the river.

• Make a forest with twigs or sticks and “stumble trip” through with small figures or your fingers

• Make a muddy puddle in the garden and “squelch squerch” in it

• Make a snowstorm with tissue paper

• Make a cave with blankets and cushions
