We read the book Bear Snores On by Karma Wilson. I added props to the house area that match what is in the book. The children can reenact the story using the book and props.
This is a cast of a bear and moose track taken in the woods in Waterbury. The children can look at the animal and the tracks. There are also card for the children to play a track matching or memory game.
