FELTBOARD: 10 Teddy Bears in aBed

“Ten Teddy Bears Sleeping in the Bed”

Ten little teddy bears sleeping in the bed,

Five at the foot and five at the head.

One little teddy said, “This bed is TOO full!”

So he grabbed the blanket and started to pull.

He pulled and he pulled and he pulled some more,

Until two little teddies went BOOM to the floor!

(Make pulling motions with PULL and clap with the BOOM)

(Count down until…)

One little teddy bear sleeping in the bed,

Zero at the foot and one at the head.

This little teddy said, “This is not right!

I don’t want to sleep alone tonight!”

So…

One little teddy bear sleeping in the bed,

Zero at the foot and one at the head.

This teddy said, “This bed is NOT full!”

So he put out his paw and started to pull.

He pulled and he pulled and he pulled some more,

Until four little teddies climbed up from the floor!

(Count up until…)

Ten little teddy bears sleeping in the bed,

Five at the foot and five at the head.

One little teddy said, “This is JUST right!”

So ten little teddy bears said, “Good Night!”

STORTIME: Zzzzzzzzzzz

Where to Sleep by Kandy Radzinski - CUTE! A little kitten tries to find a comfy place to sleep. A tale as old as time so while the story lacks the illustrations are bold and fun to explore.


Cows in the Kitchen by June Crebbin- Great story to read-sing with the kids singing along.

A Book of Sleep by Il Sung Na- Very interesting illustrations. An all around nice storytime read.

Are You Ready for Bed? by Jane Johnson-A sweet little story. A little uneventful and vanilla though but could work if you skip some pages.
