Poem: A Bear Eats Honey.
A bear eats honey (pretend to eat)

In his tummy (rub tummy)
But the bees don't think it's funny
Buzzzzzzzzzzz! (make hand buzz around like a bee)

Oxenbury. We had the kids do the actions with us in place of

Rhyme: Five Bears in the Bed.
Five bears in the bed and the little one said,
“Roll over, I’m crowded.”
So they all rolled over, and one fell out.
Four bears in the bed, and the little one said,
“Roll over, I’m crowded.”
So they all rolled over and one fell out.
Three bears in the bed, and the little one said,
“Roll over, I’m crowded.”
So they all rolled over and one fell out.
Two bears in the bed, and the little one said,
“Roll over, I’m crowded.”
So they all rolled over and one fell out.
One bear in the bed, and the little one said,
“I’m lonely, come back.”
