learning about bears and hibernation



I'm really very tardy in getting this post put together, but I hope you'll understand. Sometimes living gets in the way of writing and that's certainly the case where posts about learning with the girls are concerned!

A while back the big girl expressed interest in learning more about bears and specifically about their hibernation.

So...I put together some resources that I knew would appeal to her learning preferences and we worked on them.

Since some of you might also have children interested in learning more about bears I thought I'd compile a listing of the resources we used and share them with you all.

I also wanted to let you know that I read each and every comment that comes in! I want to reply to them all, too - but alas, life interferes. Please don't be offended if I didn't have the time to personally reply to a comment you left.

About Me

My Photo
A 40 something mama meandering through life with an eclectic 21 year old boy-man (the boy), an 8 year old girl (big girl) who is a ball of lightening, and a 4 year old girl (baby girl) who brightens our lives with her smiles. I'm grounded by my 40 something husband and partner (the hubster) whose quirky mannerisms brighten my days.

I've been a single mama, married mama, divorced mama, career mama, SAHM, and WAHM. There was a short time of my life when I wasn't a mama, but that was a LONG time ago!

I hold an AA, BS, and MA and most say I'm wasting them by devoting my intellectual capabilities and energy in the nurture of the wee ones that I've been entrusted to raise, but there is nothing else I'd rather be doing these days. :)

I love hearing from readers, so please share your thoughts and leave comments, too!
