Buzz the bear comes out of hibernation

Our class bear, Buzz, began hibernation when the weather got cold. Now that it's officially spring, he is coming out of his cave and bringing an end to his hibernation! We created a cave out of a box and left it in the same area in the class all during winter.

We tried to decorate it so it looked like it had trees all around and snow on top. I added a Do Not Disturb sign to the top. Most of the children respected Buzz and left him in peace. However, one new student pulled him out to play with, and I realized I didn't explain why he was in there. Another child, with behavioral issues, took him out several times during the beginning of his hibernation, but eventually left him alone after we discussed it several times.
They will be excited to see Buzz out of his cave tomorrow!
