Teddy Bear Picnic Coloring Pages

Before we do our Teddy Bear Picnic coloring pages, lets read a book.  The book i would read is Teddy Bear Picnic by David Grisman and Jerry Garcia (of the Grateful Dead).

Here is a video of Jerry Garcia singing the Teddy Bear’s Picnic song on youtube!  After reading the book you can play the song and then work on practicing and singing together the song.

After reading the book, you could explain to the students you are going to have your own teddy bear picnic!  You will make invitations together and the students will bring in their teddy bears (or other animals) into school for the day.  (I have included a template for the teddy bear picnic invitation below).

On the day of the Teddy Bear Picnic make sure you have some extra teddy bears in case a child forgets to bring one.  You could also have students share bears for the day.

The day the children bring in their teddy bears the students will leave them at their desks before going out to recess (or elsewhere).  When the children return to the classroom the bears will be missing/hidden!  The students will need to look for the bears using their binoculars!  They better dress in disguise while they go look for the bears…(wear your mask or bear hat!)  Once the bears are found, the students have a snack with their bears. (They could have teddy grahams and gummy bears)  They can also do a craft together, and a writing prompt.  (All these things are included below).

Another idea is that instead of having Teddy Bear Picnic Activities for Kindergarten, you could do a Teddy Bear Sleepover!  (OR, you could have both a picnic and a sleepover).  After the picnic is over, you could read the story A Bedtime for Bear (Bear and Mouse) by Bonnie Becker.  This book is about a Bear and a Mouse who go to have a sleepover together but then become frightened and they each keep up the other (until they eventually fall asleep).

After spending the day at the picnic there could be a teddy bear sleepover!  The children have to be okay with leaving their teddy bears at school but once the children leave for the night, the teddy bears get into mischief!  They will be found in the morning having done different activities in the room.  The students will be absolutely delighted when they arrive in the morning to find what their bear had done overnight!  This creates another opportunity for a writing prompt!

Here is what your teddy bear picnic coloring pages look like:

Handwriting Patch Curriculum
Teach a child handwriting AND drawing using our handwriting curriculum.

Madreen Karle is a master first grade reading teacher with over 30 years of classroom experience. She taught reading in a special needs and English as a Second Language classroom. After retiring she wrote a reading program to help others learn how to teach reading. She is a trusted educator and author of 5 books to help teach children to read and write. In addition to her books, she is a mentor for 3 websites that give reading teacher tips (Mrs. Karle’s Sight and Sound ReadingMrs. Karle’s Reading Patch, and Mrs. Karle’s Handwriting Patch). Through her teaching she learned that confidence was the key to learning to read. A child who is not confident at reading does not like to read and struggles to read. Mrs. Karle created “sunshine moments” to help teach children how to grow their confidence and learn to read.
Meeghan Karle Mousaw (Madreen’s daughter) has her Master’s in Special Education. She has 8 years experience teaching children to read online. In addition, she developed a curriculum to teach children handwriting called The Handwriting Patch. With the Handwriting Patch learning is fun because children learn to draw and learn handwriting at the same time. In 2019 The Handwriting Patch curriculum became an amazon best seller the first year it was released, helping thousands of kids learn handwriting with a unique, fun method. She is mom to 6 kids, each with differently learning abilities and struggles.
The Reading Patch was established by the creators of Mrs. Karle’s Sight and Sound Reading. Together they have been featured on the NBC media outlets and Parents Magazine online. Over the last 8 years in their online platform, Madreen and Meeghan have worked tirelessly with teachers, homeschoolers and parents looking to help children learn to read to become a trusted authority in teaching children to read and advocating early literacy skills. They often partner with other educational experts to deliver the most current information to the Reading Patch community.
