I’m guessing you know there’s a song for everything ... including teddy bears. And what better way to celebrate National Teddy Bear Picnic Day than with a song.
The Teddy Bear song was written in 1907. “If you go down in the woods today.”
As soon as I read the opening line, from memories of days gone by, from the recesses of my mind, came the lyrics. And I mean every single verse. I didn’t know I knew this song by heart. I’m betting that you probably know it too. Here we are on the verge of National Teddy Bear Picnic Day, the perfect time to sing this song with gusto while setting up your picnic.
Teach it to your children while spreading the picnic blanket, sing while opening the basket of goodies, sing while the sun is high and mixed in children’s laughter. Sing for the big Teddies, the small, the cute, the floppy, the brown, the hand sewn, the torn, sing for all the Teddies.
