'Bear Hunting' Has Spread to Several Communities as a Socially-Distant Fun Activity for Families
Published March 26, 2020
I couldn't find where it originated, but over the past few days I have seen many posts shared about "Bear Hunting." It's a fun activity to get the family out of the house while still following the COVID-19 social distancing guidelines.
It doesn't involve any type of firearm or other weapon and no harm is done to any critters. People in neighborhoods are asked to place a teddy bear in a street-facing window so that families can take a walk and go on a "Bear Hunt" wile getting some fresh air. It's a nice distraction for both children and adults during this time.
As we get closer to Easter will we perhaps see a "Bunny Hunt?"
