A whole landscape in soft wool felt: rolling hills, a winding river, a wooden bridge, a dense forest, a sunny meadow, and a snug bear cave at the end of the trail. Children move through the landscape, following the bear's path or inventing their own story. When the day is done, it rolls up and fastens with a button. The Felt Bear or woodland animal figurines pair beautifully with this mat.

Why it lasts.

We carry the Bear Hunt Mat because story-based landscape play is one of the richest forms of imaginative play we know. Children who love the classic bear hunt story will recognize every landmark and play it out repeatedly. Children who have not read the book will use it on their own terms, building trails and adventures through a world that feels genuinely large.

A whole landscape

River, forest, meadow and cave to move through.

Made by hand

Hand-felted from New Zealand wool in Nepal.

Rolls up for storage

A button closure keeps it neat on the shelf.

Who it's for

For the parent
A 31½-inch adventure landscape in soft wool felt with rolling hills, a river, a forest, a meadow, and a bear cave. Bear and book sold separately.
For the educator
A story mat for We're Going on a Bear Hunt retelling, setting vocabulary, and open-ended small world play with woodland creatures.
For the gift-giver
A standout gift for book-loving families, with enough terrain to run a whole adventure from the first page to the last. Book sold separately.

Ways to play.

Walk the felt bear through each terrain zone in sequence, acting out the adventure from the meadow to the cave and back. Use woodland animal figurines to populate the forest and the riverbank. Retell the story in a child's own words, adding new characters and detours along the way. Pairs beautifully with woodland figurines.
