Feeling hungry and oh so tired, she was all alone.

She smelled some porridge, so the story goes.

She said it was . . . too hot, it was . . . too cold, it was . . . just right, so she ate it all.

She ate it all from the Baby Bear’s bowl.

Jump up, turn around, and run home now.

Ooo-oo-ooh, Goldilocks!

Feeling full from the yummy porridge made by Mama Bear.

She tried the chairs out, so the story goes.

She tried the Papa Bear’s chair, the Mama Bear’s chair, and the Baby Bear’s chair.

Feeling tired from the walk in the woods she was ready to lay her head.

She tried the beds out, so the story goes.

She tried the Papa Bear’s bed, the Mama Bear’s bed, and the Baby Bear’s bed.

She said it was . . . too hard, it was . . . too soft, it was . . . just right so she laid her head.

She laid her head on the Baby Bear’s bed. (Then the BEARS CAME HOME and the Baby said)
