One of the toughest jobs right now is to keep children happy and engaged in different activities because they are too young to understand the weight of the situation. Unfortunately, with schools closing down and parents working from home, the activities are quite limited and parents are finding it harder every day to keep their sanity intact while providing amusement for the kids.

In some countries right now, taking walks outside to get fresh air is still allowed, provided that you maintain the six feet distance and follow all the rules. However, you still need to be careful in case there are any bears out there. Yes, furry bears hiding in the windows of houses waiting to be located by the kids

To ensure that children remain busy and entertained during social isolation, local communities are now putting bears in the windows of their houses so children can spot the stuffed toys. The origin of the trend is unknown but quite effective nonetheless
.
They are calling it the global hunters and seems to be inspired by Michael Rosen and Helen Oxenbury’s 1989 children’s book, We’re Going on a Bear Hunt. So now, many parents are using this to keep their young ones entertained and Twitter is flooded with the hashtag #GoingOnABearHunt.
If you remember clearly, the story revolves around a group of brave children who go out and overcome multiple obstacles to “catch a big one” during their vacations.

The trend has been particularly famous in the United States, Australia and New Zealand so now a lot of creatures are randomly peeking out of the windows in multiple towns. The CTV News journalist Daniele Hamamdijan’s London street was transformed into a wildlife habitat soon after she shared the pictures of this idea in a WhatsApp group
