Big Bear and the Forest Footprints

A strong bear plods right toward you, nose up and eyes wide, curious about the world. His round ears stick out and his fuzzy cheeks puff slightly as he puts one big paw forward, ready for whatever fun comes next. He stands surrounded by a path of paw prints, walking across the page with gentle determination. Each footprint marks where his heavy steps have pressed into the forest floor.

Paw prints march along the border, following him like a parade of tiny shadows. Some paws look firm and careful, others bounce along in playful pairs. The bear’s fur begs for color: will you make him a classic brown, or maybe a frosty white bear with pink-tipped toes? Twigs and stones might hide along the print path, waiting for a splash of crayon or marker to bring them to life.

Fun Fact!

A stressed or agitated bear may communicate its discomfort by making loud popping noises with its jaw as a clear warning signal.
