We're going on a bear hunt

[crazybones]

I know this is a famous book but I had actually never read it:blush: I bought it at the weekend and have started planning a theme around it.

So here is some of the stuff I have found to go with the book or a theme

Thanks for the links Annie.

This is one of my daughter's favourite books at the moment. She has my husband reading it to her before he goes to work every morning. We've got the pop up version and it is really a good buy.

Sarah that was fab. I was joining in and hubby is trying to watch the match giving me stange looks. :laughing:

[Hellsbells]

Strangely this is the story that calms my son if he is upset or has hurt himself. I just have to whisper it in his ear and he relaxes immeadiately!

Funny little weirdo :D

:laughing: I just love this book but how funny is it with Michael Rosen. :laughing:

Thanks Sarah!

My little mindee loves watching Michael Rosen on youtube, so much so that my son has downloaded it onto my ipod so he can watch it while we're waiting for his sister to come out of school.

I love this book.

It was a firm favourite of Jacks when he was a toddler....he is now 12.

The book is still well loved and I quite often take the minded children off on a bear hunt and they love it too :D

One of the best children's books ever written :thumbsup:

Theatre tickets!!!

Just been searching online as my girls are addicted to the bear hunt so thought we might do a wall freize and found that there is a stage production of the book. Mostly down south/mid uk at the moment, bath, folkstone, nottingham but thought if people like it as much as my girls they might be interested.

[miss mopple]

Oooh, thanks for that. I'll have to take a look as E would love it :thumbsup:

[singlewiththree]

He also have a new book out called "bear in a cave" where the bear visits the city

How did you find out about the show. I would love to be able to take one of mindees to see it as he loves the story and will watch Michael Rosen on Youtube over and over again.

Hi, I saw it on my local theatre website (worthing). They had a few to choose from. The tiger who came for tea is this week. Gruffalo came awhile back but a friend said it wasnt thet great so passed on it.
