Welcome to UAE Storytime’s Eid event! The story being read is We’re Going on a Bear Hunt, a classic children’s storybook by Michael Rosen. It is a great story and children love repeating the lines while pretending to go looking for a bear. The webinar will have storytelling, activities, singing songs and physical activities too. Be prepared to have a lot of fun!
To make the event as fun and interactive as possible for your children, it would be great if you could prepare by doing some of these suggestions
There will be a lot of action (jumping, crawling, running) during the webinar and it would be best to make sure there are no valuable items or dangerous objects in the area where your child will be watching.
The story is about looking for a bear so it would be nice if your child could gather together some teddy bears to watch the webinar too. If you don’t have any teddy bears, then you could draw one!
Support children to make a Bear Cave – perhaps use a carboard box, a tent or drape material.
Encourage children to wash their hands before and after making the picnic. Please supervise children as they make the picnic food.
Cut it to make a swishy-swashy, swishy-swashy sound.
Get creative – use materials that you have at home to create a bear! What will your child’s bear look like?
