Here Come the Bears!

Hey there! Are you ready for a fun adventure? Let’s meet some cool animals and learn about kindness and stories!

Meet Melody the Beaver

Look, it’s Melody the Beaver! She can slap her tail and chew sticks with her strong teeth. Beavers are amazing builders! They make homes called lodges.

Building a Lodge

Boomer has a great idea! Let’s build a lodge like Melody’s. We can be Beaver Bears and gather lots of sticks to make a super high castle lodge. Imagine listening to stories in our sunny castle lodge!

Storytime Fun

Let’s gather around for storytime! Our first story is about kindness. Look at the children’s hands making a heart. Being kind makes everyone happy. Do you help others and say please and thank you? That’s being kind!

Whose Big Teeth Are These?

Now, let’s read about big teeth and pointy ears. Who could it be? It’s a baby wolf cuddling its mother! Not so scary now, right? Stories can surprise us with cute endings!

Perfect Day for Animals

Let’s see what makes a perfect day for animals. The cat loves flowers, the dog enjoys water, and the squirrel likes corn. But oh no, here comes a big bear! The bear has a perfect day, but what about the other animals?

Playing with Ducky

Look, a little ducky wants to play! Let’s play chase with Ducky. If Ducky touches you, you’re it! But Ducky doesn’t get tired. How about we lie down and close our eyes to help Ducky nap?

Time for Books

Let’s find more books and enjoy storytime together. Books are full of adventures and fun! Nighty night, little ducky. Sweet dreams!

Thanks for joining the adventure! Remember, being kind and reading stories can make every day a perfect day!

  • What do you think it would be like to build a lodge like Melody the Beaver? Have you ever built something with your friends or family? What was it?
  • Can you think of a time when you were kind to someone or when someone was kind to you? How did it make you feel?
  • Imagine you are an animal having a perfect day. What would you do, and who would you spend it with?
  1. Build Your Own Lodge: Just like Melody the Beaver, let’s try building our own lodge! Gather some small sticks, twigs, or even building blocks. Work together with your friends to create a lodge. How high can you make it? Once it’s built, imagine what stories you would tell inside your lodge. Can you think of a story about kindness to share with your friends?

  2. Kindness Heart Craft: Let’s make kindness hearts! Cut out heart shapes from colored paper. On each heart, write or draw one way you can be kind to others. Share your hearts with the class and create a kindness wall. How many different ways of being kind can we come up with together?

  3. Animal Adventure Walk: Go on a walk outside or in your schoolyard. Look for animals or signs of animals, like birds, squirrels, or even insects. What do you think makes a perfect day for them? Can you spot any animals building their homes like Melody the Beaver? Share your observations with your classmates.

Here’s a sanitized version of the provided YouTube transcript:

Here come the bears! The book “Hry Bear” sure has a big job to do. Look at the way she slaps her tail! I can do that! I’m Melody the beaver.

Whoa, wait a sec! Did she just chew a stick in half? Yeah, beaver’s teeth are so strong she can chew down whole trees!

Come on everyone, better leave Beaver to her lodge. Let’s keep looking for books.

Everyone stop! What is it, Boomer? I just had a great idea! Let’s build a lodge just like Beaver’s! Ooh, then we can all be Beaver Bears! That’s me, Boomer the Beaver Bear.

Okay, I’ll be a Beaver Bear, but I’m not chewing sticks. Yeah, if we’re Beaver Bears, then we can get lots of sticks and build a super high castle lodge!

Really? A super high castle lodge? Maybe even a super high and sunny castle lodge, and we can listen to a story in it!

Nice! Great idea, Boomer! Beaver Bear Melody, let’s go chop some sticks for our lodge!

Let me help with those sticks! Scout and I will stay here to look for books and to find a spot to build our super high sunny castle lodge.

Go, go, go!

Crystal, can we really build a castle lodge that will touch the sky? Why not? Let’s find a book!

Look, we have a book! Now we just have to build our super high lodge.

Where are the sticks? They’re over by the bridge. Let’s read the book first; it really looks like it wants to tell a story to us.

Okay, Scout.

Okay, I guess. Yes, storytime! Is everyone close and comfy?

Let the story begin!

A world of kindness from the editors and illustrators of Pajama Press. Look, all the children’s hands make the shape of a heart! Wow! Kindness and hearts kind of go together. Are you kind? I think we’re all kind like those kids. It looks like they’re giving something away.

Do you wait your turn? Sometimes it’s hard to wait, but those kids look so happy! Maybe being kind makes you happy.

Will you help someone younger or older? You all helped me out of the log! That’s because you’re strong!

Are you gentle with animals, big and small? Do you say please and thank you? It’s easy, you know!

Oh, I know what the bunnies are saying! “May I have an apple, please?” Here you go, bunny friend!

Oh, thank you very much! Crunch, crunch! Yummy!

But can you say “I’m sorry” if you’re wrong? You do that, Boomer, when you’re too loud sometimes, right?

Oops! Sorry!

Could you share something special? That’s really hard to do. When someone is sad, will you comfort them? Beaver looked a little sad, right, Boomer?

Yeah, she did! It’s because she had a lot more to build.

Will you be a friend to someone new? And that, my friend, is how a little kindness grows into a world of kindness.

Look what the little boy and the nice girl painted! That’s so nice! That’s a great story full of kindness!

Yes, story time! Is everyone close and comfy?

Let the story begin!

Whose big teeth are these? By Sandrine Bo and Margerie B. Big teeth, but they might belong to something big, like a monster, or they might not.

Scout, let’s read and find out!

Okay!

Whose black hairs are these? Black, all black! It’s got black fuzzy hair just like me!

Oh yeah! Ah, wait! Here is a white bit! What is it? I think it’s a tooth! Cool!

I guess as long as it’s only one tooth.

Whose big teeth are these? Look at all those big teeth!

Oh, don’t worry! Lots of cute animals have really big teeth!

Yeah, like bunnies! I guess that’s true!

Whose pointed ears are these? Those don’t look like bunny ears!

Let’s turn the page and figure this out!

Good idea!

Whose bright eyes are these? Very bright eyes!

Whose long paws are these? Those are funny looking feet! My feet are funny too!

See?

You do have funny feet, Boomer!

Whose sharp claws are these? I don’t want to see what comes next!

I do! Me too! But aren’t you afraid? If we find out whose claws they are, then we’ll know! And maybe if we find out what it is, you won’t be afraid!

Really?

Whose bushy tail is this?

Okay, whatever it is, it has a tail! A nice bushy tail!

So shaggy and fuzzy!

Who could it be?

It could be a kitty cat or a tiger ready to pounce!

Roar!

What do you think, Scout?

I’m not sure, but I want to find out!

It’s a baby wolf cuddling its mother!

A baby wolf? So cute! Those big teeth and sharp claws and pointy ears aren’t so scary now that we know it’s just a cuddly baby wolf in a book!

Nope, they’re not! I was a little scared when the book started, but I’m glad I listened to the whole story! It had such a cute and cuddly ending!

Thank you!

Bye!

Thanks!

What was that?

Huh?

I know! I know! That’s a toad! I love toads! Let’s find it!

Here, Toad! Where are you?

Ooh, that way! There she is!

Hi, Toad! And there she goes!

That’s some hoppy hopping, Toad!

Look at me! I can hop too!

Whoa! Now that sure is a hoppy hop!

Poor Toad! Oops! Sorry about that, Toad! I’m just so excited to meet you!

She looks a little scared. You’re a lot bigger than her, Boomer, and you did make her go way up high like this!

Maybe she’ll feel better if we’re toads too!

Croak, croak!

Great idea, Melody!

Croak, croak, croak!

My turn!

Uh-oh! Poor Toad! Where did she go?

Oh, a perfect day by Lane Smith!

Flowers! Ooh, I like this book already! That bear looks so comfy, just like us!

Yeah! The warmth of the sun felt good on Cat’s back. Cat liked to be in the flowerbed where the daffodils grew. It was a perfect day for Cat!

Hey, where did the cat go?

Oh, there she is! Cat really loves those flowers!

She sure does!

The cool of the water was what Dog liked best when it was hot. Dog sat in the waiting pool that his friend Bert filled for him. It was a perfect day for Dog!

Bird!

Bert topped off the bird feeder with it. It was a perfect day for Chickadee!

That little chick is so sweet and cute!

Squirrel went up the pole, Squirrel went down the pole! Squirrel could not get to the seed!

Bert dropped a corn cob onto the grass. It was a perfect day for Squirrel!

Everyone looks so happy! Yeah! The cat, the dog, the bird, and the squirrel! They’re all having such a perfect day!

Look at the bear! Whoa! He’s big!

It was a perfect day for Squirrel!

Oh no! The bear is eating the squirrel’s food!

It was a perfect day for Chickadee!

Now the bear is eating all the birdseed!

It was a perfect day for Dog!

There goes Dog’s nice pool!

It was a perfect day for Cat!

Hey, Cat’s leaving!

Look! The warmth of the sun, the cool of the water, a belly full of corn and seed, a flower bed for a nap!

It was a perfect day for Bear!

That story made me happy until that bear came along!

Yeah, he took the squirrel’s corn and gobbled it all up! Then he took the bird seeds and poured them into his mouth!

And then he tipped the dog’s bath all over himself! Splash!

And ruined Cat’s flowers!

But the bear had a perfect day!

Yeah, but what about all the other animals? The chick, the squirrel, the cat, and the dog?

Oh, you know what? I think I scared Toad just like the bear in the book scared the other animals!

You didn’t mean to, Boomer!

I know, but I hope I didn’t ruin our perfect day!

Thank you for sharing your story with us!

Thank you! Goodbye!

But where?

Let’s go look!

Okay, little ducky, let’s go find your mommy!

Oh look! They’re all sleeping! So cute!

Now, Ducky! Hop! He doesn’t look like he wants to take a nap!

Wow! Playing is way more fun!

Quack, quack! You woke the duckies!

Oops! Quack, quack!

Come on everyone, let’s go and find a book!

Nighty night, little ducky! Sweet dreams! Sleep tight!

Books! Yahoo!

Book!

See any books, Scout?

No, not yet!

But he found a little ducky! That duckling isn’t sleepy at all!

Nope! He really wants to play!

Hey, Ducky! Try to get me!

Boomer, it’s not playtime!

I know, but maybe if we play chase, Ducky will get tired!

Great idea! Come on! If Ducky touches you, you’re it! Then you have to try and catch someone by touching them!

Great, Boomer!

Right! Watch out, Crystal!

Oh no! Now I’m it!

You better run!

You can’t get me, Melody!

I’m going to get you!

You can’t catch me!

Over here, Crystal! You’re it again, little Ducky!

Oh!

No, Ducky! It only works when you touch one of us!

Okay, I’m it! But our chase game isn’t working! Ducky isn’t getting tired at all!

But I am!

Me too!

That was a lot of chasing!

I’m not tired!

Woohoo!

Uh, Boomer, we need to help Ducky get ready for his nap!

Oh yeah! I forgot! What should we do?

I know! I know! When it’s nap time and I’m not tired, I lie down like this!

Ooh, that might work! Come on, lie down!

Ooh, good! Now close your eyes! You’ll feel sleepy in no time!
