With all your friends today.
Bear and his friend are taking a trip to the mountains. Tell the time with them as they make their way to their destination on many different types of transportation and have lots of fun when they get there!
Bear Takes a Trip
Awhile back I wrote a post on various books about bears. Bear At Work and Bear in the Square are a few board books that I like to read to my grandchildren. Here's more bear books!! Then, there's a book of honesty and bravery called, The Princess and the White Bear King. Be sure and read my review of Bear On A Bike by Stella Blackstone.
Bear in Sunshine has bold, bright colors in this charming board book for ages 1-4. I think these selections are just right for the little ones.
Happy reading and singing!
