For parents and educators
Turn this activity into a playful English experience at home or in the classroom. Start by watching Nancy Kopman’s “Polar Bear” together and copying her actions. Then play the game, repeating key words such as run, stop, look, climb and sleep, and give children time to respond through movement, pointing or words. Step away from the screen to run on the spot, pretend to climb and freeze on “Stop!” Finish by inviting a child to lead the actions while everyone else follows. Keep it short, repeat favourite moments and focus on shared enjoyment, helping children connect English words with meaning through play.
