Mama bear!

Mom-to-be Pink looks fur-ociously cute in a panda bear hat while shopping in Malibu, Calif., on Wednesday.

The singer, 31, and husband Carey Hart expect their first child next spring, and plans to parent from a tour bus.

“As soon as the baby can say ‘Mama,’ I’m going on the road,” Pink laughs. “We are going to be a traveling family gypsy band with garlands in our hair.”

Designed for children aged 3 to 6, the 45-minute long film demonstrates how to articulate and work through feelings of anger, sadness and happiness in an appropriate way through animated skits, puppets and music .

Three for the road!

After a few days of fun and relaxation Down Under, Nicole Kidman, Keith Urban and daughter Sunday Rose, 2, depart Australia from Sydney Airport Thursday.

“It took me so long to get pregnant and have a baby, so I have enormous gratitude. I have two grown children with that enormous gratitude that they are healthy and sane and together and are great, great people,” the Rabbit Hole star, 43, recently told the Associated Press.

“I’m not one of those people that needs to be reminded of what I have.”
