Time for this week's bear of the week - except this week it's not one bear, but a whole family of bears - the Berenstain Bears.
Papa Bear, Mama Bear, Sister Bear and Brother Bear live in a cool tree house and have lots of funny adventures - usually involving Papa Bear learning something which he is, in fact, trying to teach (Papa Bear is not too bright, methinks).
The Berenstain bears began as book characters but, like so many famous bears, have made their way on to television screens (hmm, makes me wonder why nobody has made a tv show about moi, Pemberthy Bear). You can learn more about the Berenstain Bears,a nd play games, on their website.
A new word for you (and me): objurgate.
According to dictionary.com, this refers to the act of scolding or rebuking sharply.
I didn’t know that I was objurgating, but recently two of the toy soldiers were having a disagreement near my shelf. Their arguing woke me up and, I must confess, I got very snarly.
“Go away!” I snapped. “I don’t want to see you here.”
Later, when I’d woken properly, I felt quite bad. Those soldiers were obviously in need of a sympathetic ear. It may have been that I could help with their problem by being a rational third party. So I sought them out and apologised for my brusque words. They accepted my apology and also agreed to settle their differences.
Next time I’m woken, though, I’ll try not to objurgate. Instead, I’ll attempt to figure out what is needed from me, and to act more calmly.
It might surprise you to hear that I'm not the only famous bear on the planet.
So, to liven my blog up a little, and to share the love, I thought I might introduce my readers to other famous bears.
First up (drumroll please, Primula), this week's bear of the week is -
HUMPHREY. (Sorry for shouting but I'm excited, because Humphrey is a bit of a legend. He's been entertaining kids all over Australia for years and years. My friend Sally says he was even around when she was a kid - and that's a long time ago.
If you visit Humphrey's site you can see what he looks like and play games of all kinds.
Yay Humphrey.
While I like to think of myself of handsome, clever and sensible, my friend Primula often tells me I’m cute – and, let’s face it, being cute is a pretty good thing to be.
So I’ve decided to scour the great wide web and share with you some of the other cute things that are online.
First up, here’s a blog page featuring 58 Wonderfully Cute Illustrated Monster Characters. My favourite is the fourth one down with the rainbow and rabbits and tress and stuff. But I like the funky chickens as well. Further down there’s a cute green octopussy thing that Primula thinks is a bit like the octopus who lives here in the toyroom. Anyway, enjoy the site. It’s high on cute factor.
