We had a fun Teddy Bear Party for my son, and here are some of the activities we had for the kids to do! The parents really loved what we did, since a lot of the ideas are educational.(Since I am a teacher, I couldn't help myself!)  Recipe 4 Smelly Bears  Glue sandpaper to tag board and then cut out bear shapes. Give the children cinnamon sticks and let them rub the sticks on the  sandpaper. The bears will smell like cinnamon!  :).,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,:) Recipe 4 Hide N Seek Bears Before the children go outside, hide their bears all over the play yard. When all of the bears have been found, let the children who  want to continue the game take turns hiding and finding the bears.  :).,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,.,:) Recipe 4 ABC BEARS  Cut 26 bear shapes out of posterboard and write the letters "A" - "Z"  on them with a felt tip marker. Laminate them or cover them with clear stick paper. Then mix up the bears and let the children arrange  them in alphabetical order.  :).,/,.,/,.,/,.,/,.,/,.,/,.,/,.,/,,.,/:)  Recipe 4 CAVE FINGERPLAY  Here is a cave (Bend fingers on one hand) Inside is a bear (Put thumb inside fingers) Now he comes out To get some fresh air (pop out thumb)  He stays out all summer In sunshine and heat He hunts in the forest For berries to eat. (Move thumb in a circle) When snow starts to fall, He hurries inside His warm little cave And there he will hide. (Put thumb inside fingers) Snow covers the cave Like a fluffy white rug Inside the bear sleeps All cozy and snug (Place one hand over the other) :).,/,.,/,.,/,.,/,./,,./,.,/,.,.,:)  Recipe 4 THREE BROWN BEARS Sung to: Three Blind Mice Three Brown Bears, Three Brown Bears, See all their beds, See all their chairs.
