The Big Adventure Continues: Charles and Chance Go to a Tea Party in Birchy Cove, Newfoundland

Hi. I'm Charles the Bear Cub. You know me. I live on Sparkle Road with my buddy, Grandpa James. He's really old. He was the second Canadian to get off Noah's Ark, you know.

I hel Oh. Wait! Chance lives with us, too. He's a newborn cubby someone left in a basket on our doorstep. He's a wee little thing. He doesn't have any teeth. He just drinks chocolate owls' milk from his bottle. I look after Chance, too. He's a handful!

Know what? Chance and me are having fun. We're visiting Teddy and his friend at their house in Birchy Cove. Birchy Cove is in Newfoundland. Oh, wait! It's in Newfoundland and Labrador, too. That's in O Canada, you know.

We're going to have a tea party. I l-o-v-e tea parties, don't you? We'll eat yummy food, like Smarties and pretzels and we'll drink root beer, too. We're gonna sing songs like There Were Three Jolly Fishermen and All Around the Circle. I can sing real good, you know. Teddy told me he's 62 years old! That's really old! I'm five. Teddy is way older than me. I'm pretty sure Grandpa James is older. He must be a hundred.

Oh. Wait! Did you hear that? Grandpa James is hollering, "Where are my handsome bear cubs? Where are my Sons of Windsor? Where are my Princes of Ontario? That's me! Charles! That's Chance! We're handsome bear cubs. We're Sons of Windsor and Princes of Ontario! We gotta go find Grandpa James so we can get our ears tickled and our noses kissed.

This is me, Charles the Bear Cub saying, "Be good citizens. Be kind to friends and neighbours. Then you can eat Smarties and drink root beer. Oh! Wait! Come over to Teddy's house and have a tea party with us! We can have fun together! Okay! Over and out!"
