Bouncing Bear

WHY?

Whenever there is a force on one thing in one direction, another force is acting on something else in the opposite direction. This is Newton's Third Law. When the children pull on the toy bear in one direction, the bear responds in the opposite direction in relationship to how hard the bear is pulled.
