She couldn't
be any better suited for the job. Nanny Bear is pudgy enough
to love, but quick enough to tweak the mischief out of evening tumbles
on the lawn. She listens raptly to the rambling daydreams
of childhood, yet plays the perfect bystander to to games to which
we adults are no longer privy.
Like a good
friend, Nanny Bear has those elusive qualities that make it easier
to introduce her than to describe her, so she is bound to be invited
out as much as in, and to be found wherever the little ones congregate.
No matter what
the conditions in your household, Nanny Bear can be counted on to
wear the apron - a nice cotton one, complete with pockets for safekeeping
secrets and, more important on some days than others, strings for
clinging to.
