Inspired by Emily Gravett's amazing picture book, "Orange Pear Apple Bear", this is an easy counting rhyme following a familiar pattern. Learn Baby Sign for Bear and take it away with this cute rhyme.

     5 little apples, oranges, and pears
     (Hold up five fingers)
     Hiding up high from the great hungry bear.
     (Lift arms up high, Baby Sign for Bear)
     Apple orange pear -- Bear wants his share!
     (Baby Sign for Bear)
     Munch munch crunch goes the great hungry bear.
     (Pretend to eat, Baby Sign for Bear)
     4...3...2...1...

To make this flannel board I photocopied illustrations from the book and pasted them together. I have five groups of the fruit. All images belong to Emily Gravett and her publisher...and don't they look wonderful!
