The idea for a Neighbourhood Bear Hunt comes from the National Geographic Newsletter. https://www.nationalgeographic.com/newsletters Just in case families are interested in the idea I have put some soft toys in my window on Garden Grove Drive between Cedar Glen and Birchwood.
Below is a quote from the Newsletter:
This weekend I went bear hunting.
Not for real bears, of course. That’s just not something we animal lovers at National Geographic would advocate. But more and more communities are holding “bear hunts,” in which residents place teddy bears and other stuffed creatures in their windows. The idea: While parents take children out to get some much-needed fresh air during these stay-at-home days, children looking out for their “new neighbours” get a surprising—and fun—activity.
