“…For today is the day the Teddy Bears have their picnic.” Our second annual Teddy Bear Picnic is under our belt and it was another great time with friends who have become like family over the last 3.5 years.
We started a Mommy and Me Book club in our home last year with a group of friends and it has been such a fun time to come together, read a story, do some activities, eat a fun snack, and just spend some time together. We kicked it off with a Teddy Bear picnic at a local park and knew we had to kick this year off with it as well. A Teddy Bear picnic is a fun way to celebrate National Teddy Bear Day and National Teddy Bear Picnic Day.
Here is a peek into our Teddy Bear Picnics from the last two years.

Year One:
Our sweet friends and their teddy bears were greeted with this fun sign
and I whipped up these “beary” fun bags full of bear themed snacks (honeycombs, goldfish, and teddy grahams).
We picnicked and the kids had so much fun playing on the playground.
Year Two
(which we had to hold inside due to weather!!!)
…If you go down to the woods today you’d better go in disguise
Simply paint a paper plate and cut in half, add a nose and ears, and hot glue a paper straw for a handle and add some eyes. If I had more time I would have cut out the eyes, but the kids loved them like this too.
And a beary delicious snack guarded by the best bear around: Vanilla and Chocolate Teddy Grahams and Min Marshmallows
Nothing cuter than sweet littles with their best bear friends enjoying each other’s company and having fun.
We had every intention of reading The Teddy Bear’s Picnic but we waited too long and hanger (hunger + need a nap anger) kicked in so we fed our little picnickers and then they were all on their way to home for nap.
