Craft: Bear in a Cave
This week's craft was based on the picture at left.  A brown paper lunch bag was cut so it stood about 4" standing up.  A door was cut into one side.  The bag was opened and then the edges of the sides glued in front to make a cave.  Kids colored a tree and bear cutout before gluing them to the cave as they like.

Literacy Extensions:
- Several of this week's book touch on hibernation.  Briefly explain what hibernation is and ask your child to identify animals that do and do not hibernate during the winter.
- Bear & Hare: Where's Bear? includes counting practice by playing "hide and seek".  Have some fun with your child's counting practice by doing the same.
