We are going on a bear hunt this week! Here are the songs that we will sing in our Fall Adventure class.

Sleeping Bears
Tune: Frere Jacques

Bears are sleeping, bears are sleeping
In their caves, in their caves
Wonder when they'll wake up? Wonder when they'll wake up?
In the spring, in the spring

The Leaves in the Air
Tune: The Wheels on the Bus

The leaves in the air go up and down

Up and down
Up and down
The leaves in the air go up and down
All around the cave

Going on a Bear Hunt Echo Song

(Chorus)

We're going on a bear hunt
We're going to catch a big one
I'm not afraid
Do you see what I see?

Oh-oh! Grass!

Long, wavy grass
We can’t go over it.
We can’t go under it.
We’ve got to go through it!

Swishy swashy
Swishy swashy
Swishy swashy

Chorus

 
Oh-oh! A river!
A deep, cold river
We can’t go over it.
We can’t go under it.
We’ve got to go through it!

Splash splosh

Splash splosh
Splash splosh

Chorus

Oh-oh! Mud!

Thick, oozy mud
We can’t go over it.
We can’t go under it.
We’ve got to go through it!

Squelch squerch

Squelch squerch
Squelch squerch

Chorus

Oh-oh! A forest!

A big, dark forest
We can’t go over it.
We can’t go under it.
We’ve got to go through it!

Stumble trip

Stumble trip

Stumble trip

Chorus

Oh-oh! A snowstorm!

A swirling, whirling snowstorm
We can’t go over it.
We can’t go under it.
We’ve got to go through it!

Hoooo woooo

Hoooo woooo

Hoooo woooo

Chorus

Oh-oh! A cave!

A narrow, gloomy cave
We can’t go over it.
We can’t go under it.
We’ve got to go through it! 

Tiptoe! Tiptoe! Tiptoe!

What’s that?

One shiny wet nose!

Two big furry ears!
Two big goggly eyes!
It’s a bear!

Quick!

Back through the snowstorm!

Hoooo woooo! Hoooo woooo!

Back through the forest!

Stumble trip! Stumble trip!

Back through the mud!

Squelch squerch! Squelch squerch!

Back through the river!

Splash splosh! Splash splosh!

Back through the grass!

Swishy Swashy! Swishy Swashy!

Into your sleeping bags and under the covers!

We’re not going on a bear hunt again.
