MARJAN VAN ZEYL - THE BEAR Marjan van Zeyl's The Bear is really about kindness. Rose Red and Snow White were kind to the grateful bear, as well as the ungrateful dwarf, and even though their kindness was rewarded in the end, the point overall was simply kindness. Add The Bear to your postcard holder when retelling this fairy tale and use it to inspire more kindness. TEACHING THE LETTER B The bear in this fairytale is often used in Waldorf classrooms to introduce the grapheme B and the phoneme /b/.

I'm working on a bunch of paintings at once these days. This is the first one that got finished! It's for a show in July, and it will have a sister piece to go with it... a diptych, if you're fancy. Click to see it bigger! The show is fairy tale themed. You know I love a good, obscure fairy tale. You know what else I love? Flowers, and vintage clothes, and patterns. So all those things got wrapped up into this painting. It's acrylic on board, by the way, and 16"x16" square. Haven't had it framed yet but I'm thinking something wood and vintage looking. Usually framing is my least favorite part (who knows who will end up buying it, and what they'll like), but I can't wait to see this one all ready-to-hang. As usual, I did a butt load of sketching before leaping into the painting. Can you believe I really haven't done much bear drawing? I just wanted him to be really BIG with a cute face. And a crown. Because if you know this fairy tale, then you know he is a prince, after all. I like post-its for compositions. If you hate your drawing then you can just peel them off and throw them away. Yeah, flowers. I had a moment where I thought I might do teenage versions of the sisters, and make them more contemporary, but the littler versions won. As soon as I had the idea to put them in little mod dresses it was over with. I might, however, still put those heart-shaped sunglasses on Snow White... More comin'!

Forces of healing are also hidden in each fairy tale. The most important effect of the fairy tale is that they stimulate the feeling that man is a being of development, of struggle, of metamorphosis, and that behind all the adverse forces of giants and dwarfs, witches and demons there lies the good world of the true genius of man.” ~Frederick Hiebel This series of Fairy Tale sets is inspired by the Waldorf Approach of teaching children to ready through a gentle and gradual unfolding starting with Oral storytelling, then pictorial forms, and then writing. The Fairy tales and the accompanying activities are a magical and gentle addition to your homeschool and will provide you with an inspiring framework for guiding and teaching your emerging reader at home. *This set is included in the First Grade Fairy Tale set here: https://www.etsy.com/listing/537429336/adventures-through-the-fairy-tales-first?ref=shop_home_active_15 This is a print at home item
