Stir the all-purpose flour, yeast, and salt together in a mixing bowl.

Pour in the water, oil, and honey.

Set a timer for 2 minutes and stir vigorously until the timer goes off.

Stir in the whole wheat flour until mixed. Set a timer for 5 minutes. Cover the dough with a towel and let the dough rest.

Line a rimmed baking sheet with parchment paper or spray with cooking spray. Set aside.

When the timer goes off, sprinkle a tablespoon of all-purpose flour on the counter. Dump the dough on top of the flour. Flip the dough over the coat the other side with flour.

Set a timer for 5 minutes. Use both hands to fold the dough in half toward you. Use your palms to stretch the dough away from you. Turn the dough a quarter turn. Continue to knead by folding, stretching, and turning the dough. If the dough or your hands get too sticky, sprinkle with 1 more tablespoon of flour. The dough should be slightly sticky.

When the timer goes off, poke the dough with a finger. If it springs back quickly the gluten is elastic and you are done kneading. If not, knead for another 2 to 3 minutes.

Form the dough into a flat 6x6-inch square. Cut into 4 equal portions with a table knife. Set 3 portions aside and cover with a towel.

Form the dough into a square. Cut the dough in half. Shape one half into a rectangle and then roll into a log to form a smooth body. Place it seam-side down on one side of the baking sheet.

Cut the other portion of dough in half again. Cut three ½-inch pieces off one of the halves for the ears and snout. Roll the remainder of that piece into a ball to create the head and place it right next to the body. Roll the 3 small pieces into balls and place them on the head to create two ears and a snout.

Cut the remaining half of dough into 4 equal portions and use them to create legs.

Uncover the remaining dough and repeat steps 10-12 to create additional bears or other creatures.

Cover with the towel and let the bears rise for 30 minutes.

Meanwhile, heat the oven to 350°F.

Remove the towel and place the baking sheet in the oven. Bake for 20 minutes, until lightly browned.

Use the oven mitts to remove the baking sheet from the oven.

Spray the bears with cooking spray or brush with melted butter.

Place chocolate chips for eyes and a nose.

Let cool on a wire rack.

Wash the dishes and clean up after yourself.
