Share Bear

Share Bear is the class mascot for Ella and Zoe's preschool class. He helps the students remember their manners, how to be kind to each other and how to take turns speaking and listening to each other. Throughout the school year Share Bear spends one week with each child, and last week was Ella's turn.

She was one happy girl!!

Share Bear spent all week playing, eating and sleeping with Ella (Zoe too), and we had so much fun documenting our adventures together.

Share Bear certainly kept busy.

He drew pictures with Ella and Zoe,

and he created lots of art too.

He went to Ballet Class (and even wore a ballet outfit),

he helped us sort through our Halloween decorations,

and he snuggled with Ella while she read stories to him.

Share Bear also played out in our backyard. He went swinging and sliding, he played in the sandbox and with sidewalk chalk, and he had many rides up and down the hill on a scooter.

He also got a lot of hugs.

Share Bear was a great passenger while Ella rode her bike around our neighborhood,

and he grilled hotdogs and hamburgers during a family cook-out.

Share bear was also quite helpful. He was Tom's assistant while taking care of some roof work and then safely posed for a photo for Ella and Zoe.

Share Bear also cuddled with Ella and Zoe's Grama Dianne, had a cookie at the preschool's Family Fun Night, went shopping at Target and had dinner at Ole' Mexico!

Share Bear was also a great sport and didn't complain at all when the girls dressed him in a tutu, or pink socks and Barbie underpants, or when they put him in a princess outfit for their friend Eva's 5th Birthday party.

At the end of our week together Ella drew a picture of Share Bear for his book.

We also wrote a story about our adventures together,

and we added a picture/photo collage too.

It was a great week!

We're going to miss Share Bear but we're excited that at some point Zoe will have her turn and bring him home too : )
