Bears

Bears
Lots of people have been putting bears up in their windows during the Covid-19 lockdown.
Since we don't have windows by the fence of the house, our family decided to make some bears out of wood!


This was a picture of our first bear (before it was painted). We made another bear which was smaller for me, and then we decided to cover our fence with bears! After two grizzly bears, we decided to make a where's Wally bear and the three bears.

Next, we thought about what other bears we could do, so we wanted to do Paddington.
We drew out Paddington, cut the wood, painted him and put him on the fence.
It was getting close to Easter so we wanted to make an Easter Bunny!
 
After the Easter Bunny, Dad wanted a Yogi bear and we all wanted Winnie the Pooh.

and that is what our fence now looks like!

  1. Wow Harry! Your bears (and bunny) look so cool. What a great idea to make them out of wood so that people from the road can see them, your whanau are pretty clever. I like how you have described how you made them for us. Maybe if you do another one you could make us a how to video?

  3. Harry, I love this blog post - it's such a special reminder for our family as to how we spent some of the holidays. You and Jack did a great job working with Dad in the shed making these bears etc, and all of us had fun doing the painting. Well done with your writing and photos, Harry.
