We're Going on a Bear Hunt The Board Game | Board Game For Kids

Fans of the classic Michael Rosen and Helen Oxenbury story can bring the adventure to the kitchen table with this bright race-and-chase family game for ages 3 years and up. The aim is simple: be the first to get your character back home without being caught by the bear. Each player rolls the dice and follows the arrows across the beautifully illustrated board, splashing through rivers and squelching through mud just like in the book. Land on an “Uh-uh!” space and you’ll draw a card – a red “We can’t go over it” card ends your turn, while a green “Oh no! We’ve got to go through it” lets you roll again and dash further along the trail. When you reach the “Run” space, the pace really picks up: you’ll roll two dice to sprint your character towards home, then one die to move the bear as it thunders after you. With a sturdy board, 5 play pieces, 2 dice and 21 cards in the box, everything’s designed for small hands and quick set-up, so you can squeeze in a game before bedtime or after school. At BeoVERDE, we also stock the much-loved picture book We’re Going on a Bear Hunt and the We’re Going on a Bear Hunt 4-in-1 Puzzle, so you can build a whole little story world across your bookshelf, toy shelf and games cupboard. As they play, children are practising turn-taking, counting, simple strategy and social skills, all wrapped up in a familiar story world they already love. For 2–4 players, it’s an ideal first board game that grows with your child, offering just the right mix of excitement and comfort – a brilliant pick for siblings, playdates or a cosy family games night.
