you are ready to make your buttons and bubbles Bb's!

Bear hunt reader...
Need:

- Construction Paper
To Make:
- Printout the Going On A bear Hunt reader and Color
- Cut out the pages and attach the grass and cave
- Assemble the pages after the items dry
- Staple in order and attach to a piece of construction paper ( I used blue so both Bb pages are blue, both Aa pages are red)
Now you can read the fun book anytime you want! We colored the pages together so mommy, big sis, and my LO helped make the book!
** For some added fun after reading the book go on a real Bear hunt: hide a Stuffed Bear before reading the book and get out the flashlights and go search for a bear! **

We will have to track down Clifford Counts Bubbles, because we've started using bubbles in the bath lately; thank you for the suggestion! Another great "B" book is "The Barenstain's B Book" (I reviewed it here: http://infantbibliophile.blogspot.com/2009/02/b-craft-and-some-baby-book-reviews.html).
