What Makes Bear Went Over the Mountain Stand Out
Why did the bear go over the mountain? To see what he could see! Now children can go with Bernie Bear as he travels OVER the mountain, IN a cave, UNDER the ocean, UP a tree, ACROSS the desert, even AROUND the moon! Not only can children see what he can see, they can snap photos of it, too! Highlighted words to the classic song “the Bear Went Over the Mountain” let children read or sing along.
Play begins by choosing from a playful map of eight different scenes, each consisting of two pages of interactive, explorable options and characters. Teaching begins with directional words, exploration of geographical differences, and stimulating understanding of habitats of a wide range of wildlife.
Features:
• VOCABULARY: Teaching directional words – this vocabulary enhances a child’s ability to give and follow directions as well as to speak precisely.
• MUSIC: Practicing singing along with the highlighted words in this favorite nursery song.
•Relating music to various geographical and language arts vocabulary.
• SCIENCE: Aiding in word recognition with spoken and written names of animals and geography.
•Teaching geographical differences and the diversity of wildlife found within each.
•Encouraging a sense of stewardship in caring for our environment and natural habitats of wildlife creatures.

Community Insight:
This one is our favorite of the bunch, our students really enjoy it. We like the use of consistent lyrics as you explore each section of the map. The kids really enjoy taking "real" pictures too. A nice mix of activities and a good way to work on basic concepts and vocabulary. Very cute.
Just got this app and it is the cutest app! Our sons LOVE it!! It holds his attention well while being educational at the same time. A must buy.
A fun app for young children working basic concepts such as over, under, around, up and down. Bernie bear visits lots of locations and the child moves him the the right direction (following musical notes) to the accompaniment of " the bear went .. The mountain to see what he could see," There are fun mini games associated with each concept too,.
Our 18 month and three year old kids are playing it constantly and LOVE IT! But, our 7 year old really enjoys it also. Even this old dad likes the Apollo references. Great app, accurate nature info and pictures, has taken the place of Big Top Circus as our new favorite from LoeshWare.
Our 3year old loves this app! He played it for almost a hour when we first got it! Fun & Educational.
Our kids really enjoy all the Loeschware apps. This kept them occupied for a long time so it gets 5 stars from us.
Our kids love it! Both fun and educational.
Great game for kids! Both educational & fun.
If you're trying to entertain children while also educating them, you've found the perfect app. It's a lot of fun and the graphics are wonderful! We haven't met a child yet that doesn't love it.
Great app for children! Love it.
Great graphics! Great colors! Sweet looking characters! We liked the pictures the bear takes and the fact that the bear encourages children to help clean up planet Earth.
Our children love all the Loeschware apps.; they are fun and educational. Great graphics, fun characters and easy to use.
Graphics are awesome. Interlacing actual photos and historical moon quotes is neat. The app is quite engaging and has many animated objects to interact with. Our kids love this. As usual, another fabulous app from LoeschWare.
Great really innovative. Main thing kept kids engaged. Will look for more Loeschware products.
We have every single app from loeschware and this app is the best so far. Our 2.5 year old daughter loves it. It is educational , fun , we even ourselves play with this app. Graphics are bright colors , it is not boring. You won't regret , actually your child won't regret.
Forget the grand kids they had to wait for us to play first. Really good fun.
We were just searching for the song for our kids, but saw this app and took a chance. Wow! They expanded on the song to make a really cute game. Took our kids a little while to figure out all the options and functions (which was great-kept em busy!) then the giggles started coming! Good job.
