Bear Hunt

November 5, 2020 10am

We went on a bear hunt! Friends of FEAST joined us for our first annual Bear Hunt at the Resource and Retreat Center located in the Denman Estate Park, and boy did we have fun! With props in hand, our little hunters ages 3-6 participated in an

interactive read-aloud of Michael Rose’s We’re Going on a Bear Hunt. After earning their stuffed bear hunting license, the hunters were ready to do some tracking with their handcrafted binoculars.

The hunt took us to many interesting stops along the way. The hunters found signs of deer, a turtle nest with eggs that we believed had hatched, a beehive, and with the use of their binoculars, they spotted ducks in the adjacent park. We could smell signs of skunk, but luckily they are nocturnal, and we didn’t run into any. Whew!

After those encounters with nature, we headed to the wooded area in search of bears! We searched low for their tracks and high in the trees where the bears were hiding. As luck would have it, each hunter was able to hunt down a bear of their own! Success!

Once the hunt was over, the new hunting buddies had a picnic lunch in the beautiful Denman Estate Park. We hope to see them again next year, when we hunt for chances to learn more about the animals and their habitats in our beautiful setting and to hunt for more bears! Until then, friends, the bears will be hibernating in their den. Zzzzz
