What kind of bears have you seen? We saw a panda and a brown bear. Are you familiar with them? They are extremely large, furry animals and are often seen smiling and playing around.
When you think of bears, I’m sure you also think of honey!
The bears scratched their noses and looked grumpy.
You probably know Winnie the Pooh. What about Mishka, from the cartoon Masha and the Bear?
But they are friendly and nice, aren’t they?
That’s the kind of bear we’re going to make today, a friendly brown bear that steals honey.
