One of our bears was adopted and is living the best life with visit to an Anchorage Parks and Recreation’s playground.

Do you recognize this one? Hint: Lower El traditionally goes there at the end of the year.

We have a few more Peace Bears that need to be adopted. We will post when they are released so you can be on the lookout for them.

Three more bears are currently waiting to be adopted. One is where you can continue to find books this summer. Another is near where our Upper El students pick apples 🍎 in the Fall with their Kinder buddies. The last is waiting for you on our playground.

We look forward to seeing the places one of these bears visit with you.

Directions found with the bears: Denali family, take our Peace Bear with you on your travels and adventures! Snap fun photos of the bear wherever you go — at landmarks, outdoors, on trips, or during everyday activities.

Share your pictures to [email protected] or on one of Denali Montessori’s Facebook posts so everyone can follow the bear’s journey and see all the exciting places it visits. Be creative, have fun, and don’t forget to share pictures!

Do you know where our bear is celebrating National Donut Day? Hint: it’s a neighborhood business now owned by a Denali family 🎉

Did you know today is Hug Your Cat Day? Denali loves celebrating every holiday. One of our bears was curious about some cats you shouldn’t hug. Also, it saw a few baby animals.

Where have you visited lately?
