Little Bear
(tune: Frere Jacques)
Are you sleepy, Are you sleepy
Little bear, little bear?
Wintertime is coming,
Wintertime is coming,
Very soon, very soon.
Find a cave, Find a cave,
Little bear, little bear
Wintertime is here,
Wintertime is here,
Go to sleep, go to sleep.
Are you sleepy, Are you sleepy
Little bear, little bear?
You will wake in springtime
In the warm, warm springtime
Little bear, little bear
Time to wake up,
Time to wake up
Little bear, little bear
Springtime is here,
Springtime is here
Wake up now, wake up now!
The Bear
Here is a cave,
(make a fist)
Inside is a bear.
(put thumb inside fist)
Now he comes out
To get some fresh air.
(pop out thumb)
He stays all summer
In sunshine and heat.
He hunts in the forest
For berries to eat.
(move thumb in circle)
When snow starts to fall,
He hurries inside
His warm little cave,
And there he will hide.
(put thumb back inside fist)
Snow covers the cave
Like a fluffy white rug.
Inside the bear sleeps
All cozy and snug.
(cover fist with other hand)
