Bo The School Bear Visits

16 February, 2019 Mrs FD 0 Comments

This weekend we had Bo the school Bear come to visit. I must admit to secretly rolling my eyes as Noah came bounding out of school with him as pleased as punch…

The children get to bring the school bear home as part of school achievements, listening well, working hard etc. So as much as I may roll my eyes the fact of the matter was that Noah had earned Bo’s visit.

The children are to log what the Bo does in a journal and take it back to school to show to their classmates. Personally as much as we may accommodate the school bears visit, we don’t log too much in the journal as I feel it’s an unnecessary pressure for parents. We tend to post a few photos and let the children do their own write-up but we always have an additional log of the school bears visit just for us to keep.

So here are some of the fun things we did today…

Firstly, we stopped off to put Bo Bear to good use in picking up some roof tiles we’d sourced for Holly House.

And whilst in the area, we decided to take Bo to visit Caerphilly Castle.

Take a peek at how we bring the school bear to life.

We found a dragon’s lair!

Once we’d finished at the castle, we decided to stop off at the pound store so Noah and Bo could do some shopping to make a special teddy bear picnic…

On the menu was…

BEAR PIZZAS

BEAR CRISPY CAKE CAKE

BEAR COCKTAILS

We do love a personalised pizza!

And we cracked on with our Bear Crispy Cake. We simply melted chocolate and used a greaseproof paper to lay it on.

Didn’t it turn out well? Guess who licked the bowl!

We finished our day off with some bear cocktails: chocolate milk in a glass I’d decorated with a permanent marker pen!

We had a lovely day with Bo Bear and tomorrow we plan to build a bear lair and climb in it to just kick about hibernating like bears do doing nothing our PJs all day!

Do take a peek at Honey Bears Woodland Adventure too.
