Teddy Bear Theme and Activities

Bears Fingerplays and Songs

Five Little Bears
One little bear
Wondering what to do
Along came another
Then there were two!
Two little bears
Climbing up a tree
Along came another
Then there were three!
Three little bears
Ate an apple core
Along came another
Then there were four!
Four little honey bears
Found honey in a hive
Along came another
Then there were five!

Teddy Bear, Teddy Bear, turn around,
Teddy Bear, Teddy Bear, touch the ground,
Teddy Bear, Teddy Bear, reach up high
Teddy Bear, Teddy Bear, wink one eye,
Teddy Bear, Teddy Bear, slap your knees,
Teddy Bear, Teddy Bear, sit down please.

The Bear Went Over the Mountain
The bear went over the mountain.
The bear went over the mountain.
The bear went over the mountain
To see what he could see.

And what do you think he saw?
What do you think he saw?

The other side of the mountain,
The other side of the mountain,
The other side of the mountain
Was all that he could see.

Three Brown Bears Tune: Three Blind Mice
Three brown bears
Three brown bears
See all their beds
See all their chairs
The mommy cooked in
A big brown pot
The daddy's porridge
Was much too hot
The baby bear
Always cried a lot
Three brown bears

You are my Teddy Bear Tune: You Are My Sunshine
You are my teddy bear
My only teddy bear
You make me smile dear
You are my friend
You'll never know dear
How much I like you
I'm so glad you're my
Teddy Bear today.
