A few weeks ago I saw a post for the Hungry Bear ABC game and created one to use at the library. Our theme for the summer is “Dig Into Reading” and I thought the idea of a bear in a cave looking for food was really cute.
To create a station of our own we gathered these supplies:
Cardboard Box
Butcher paper (we bought a roll of brown paper to create caves)
Construction Paper
Tape
A bear
To cover the box we used crumpled pieces of brown paper to create a textured look. We taped the paper to the insides and outsides of the box.

Using construction paper we created a lake in which the bear would fish for his food. We also used construction paper to make fish.
Last we found a stuffed animal friend to complete the look.
Below are the directions created for one or more players. This is a passive activity in the library for people to explore whenever the visit.
