The kids were given an animal face card. 



During the song, when their animal came along, they crawled into a mitten (under a sheet).  When the bear sneezed, they all crawled out.  We played several times so all the friends could get a turn.  even our parent helper took a turn!

The Mitten in the Snow Song
 

 Tune: The Farmer in the Dell

A mole is the first to discover the mitten and crawls inside, followed by
a snowshoe rabbit, a hedgehog, an owl, a badger, a fox, a bear and, finally a mouse.
The mouse causes the bear to sneeze; the mitten and all its occupants go flying.)
