The teddy bear is free but you can buy lots of flea traps for your child to play with.

So what to do with these little guys? Let your child have fun folding them at first, as they are one of the easiest origami projects for kids and a perfect introduction to the world of folding. Then they can play some imaginative games or use them as puppets while they are reading (or you are reading to them).

I think this book fits well with the Bear and Friends series.
