We love reading this book. The boys would recite it to each other (with the animals all mixed up, of course). They would change it up – “Brown bear, brown bear, what do you see? I see a [kiddo] looking at me!” And then erupt into giggles. It was pretty adorable.
I printed, colored, and laminated the pieces. We used them to play with as I read the book this summer (you might remember that the blue horse joined the dinosaurs we had here). I pulled them back out to do some more activities with Brown Bear, Brown Bear.
We also did some of the activities from 1+1+1=1’s printable tot pack for Brown Bear, Brown Bear. My kid’s favorite activity from these packs is always the roll and graph. I also printed two little booklets for them to color.
Have your child paint the bear. One great thing about this project is it doesn’t matter how messy the paint gets since the bear will be getting cut out anyway.
Let it dry. Once the bear is dry, cut out the pieces.
Glue them down on a new piece of paper to put together the bear.
And there we have it!

Dragons have taken kids’ worlds by storm, and for good reason. These mystical, mysterious creatures fly, breathe fire, and often, in fiction, have a depth of feelings that betrays their tough exterior. Strong and fierce on the outside, children’s books have turned them brave and heroic on the inside. And there really is something magical…
I’ve put together a round-up of some of the best fun (and free!) educational sites for kids and teens that we’ve found. And these aren’t your average educational sites – there’s some truly unique and incredible resources in this list – from tracking sharks to free MIT classes. My kids have tried out nearly everything…
Paper play is so fun to me. You can get so creative and come up with awesome things to play with. But when you’re done, you can recycle or toss it out and not have to deal with the long term mess. And with printables, you can always print it off and enjoy them again….

Did you know printables & papercrafts were one of the big reasons I started Create in the Chaos back in 2015? At the time, I really struggled to find decent printables that 1) didn’t use up loads of color ink and 2) were exactly what I was looking for. I already had a good amount of design…
