Bear Hunt Characters (6Pk)

We are going to find some amazing learning opportunities! These six characters are the perfect addition to any literacy provision, turning a much loved story into a tangible, open ended play experience. Watch children re enact the exciting journey, building dens and exploring textures as they traverse the 'swishy swashy' grass and the 'squelch squerch' mud. These figures actively support the development of narrative skills, encouraging complex vocabulary use and sequencing (first, next, last). They are robust enough for both the indoors and the most ambitious outdoor Forest School adventures. This set is a powerful resource for building emotional literacy as children discuss feelings of fear and excitement within the safety of play.
