When I told my son we’re howling in our neighborhood each evening at 8:00, he told me in their neighborhood everyone is asked to put a bear in a window that can be seen from the street. There are sidewalks where he lives and streetlights, so it’s easy to walk along and hunt for bears.

The idea comes from a book called “We’re Going on a Bear Hunt” by Helen Oxenberry and Michael Rosen. Children go around the neighborhood and “hunt” for bears. They’re with their adults of course. Have fun with this! Adults can hunt for bears too.

What’s next? Unicorns in the Garden, perhaps.
