Imaginative way to bake and eat a cake at the beach. Fun story! Very creative! Good for Baby bear.
This is another one of my favorites growing up. I love the imaginative way Papa Bear helps Baby Bear bake a cake. And what better place to be than the beach! A must read for preschool to young readers.
This book is about a family of bears at the beach. The father bear gets creative and makes a cake out of sand. He pretends to use milk, flour, and eggs.
This book could show kids that they can be creative and think outside the box.

A bear family goes to the beach for the day. The little bear wants to make a cake but doesn't know how since he is at the beach.. His father shows him how to use his imagination to make the cake. This was a cute book for primary students because it teaches them to use their imaginations.
Charming story about imaginative, creative play.
A young bear and his family take a trip to the beach. The young bear finds out what the ingredients are to make a cake but has a hard time finding what he needs on the beach. However, his father finds a way and then little bear must eat it. Very colorful and great family book.
Cute and creative! My son enjoyed spotting a different floating vessel in the background on each page too ...
