We Are Going On A Bear Hunt Craft
Introduction
We all know the classic children's book, "We're Going on a Bear Hunt" by Michael Rosen. It's a fun and exciting story that takes us on an adventure through different landscapes in search of a bear. Kids love the repetition and the anticipation of finding the bear. But what if we took it a step further and created a craft inspired by the book? This article will show you how to create a "We're Going on a Bear Hunt" craft that your kids will love.
Materials Needed
Before we get started, let's gather the materials needed for this craft:
- Construction paper (brown, blue, green, and white)
- Scissors
- Glue
- Markers
- Cotton balls
- Googly eyes
Bear Craft
The first step is to create the bear. Take the brown construction paper and cut out a large circle for the bear's body and a smaller circle for the bear's head. Glue them together.
Next, cut out four small circles for the bear's paws and glue them to the bottom of the body. Cut out two small triangles for the bear's ears and glue them to the top of the head. Glue two googly eyes to the face and draw a nose and mouth with the marker.
Landscapes
Now it's time to create the different landscapes from the book. Cut out different shapes and colors for the grass, mud, water, and snow. Glue them onto a blue piece of construction paper to create the background.
For the grass, cut out long, thin strips of green paper and glue them in a row at the bottom of the paper. For the mud, cut out a brown circle and glue it in the center of the paper. For the water, cut out a wavy blue line and glue it above the mud. For the snow, cut out small white circles and glue them at the top of the paper.
Bear Hunt
Now it's time to go on a bear hunt! Cut out a small rectangle of white paper and write "We're Going on a Bear Hunt" at the top. Glue it to the top of the background.
Glue the bear to the background and add cotton balls for snow and clouds. You can even add other animals from the book like a family of ducks or a forest of trees.
Conclusion
There you have it – a fun and easy craft inspired by the classic book "We're Going on a Bear Hunt." This activity is perfect for a rainy day or a quiet afternoon at home. Kids will love creating the different landscapes and going on their own bear hunt. Happy crafting!
