Hey Debbie,
the really, really simple answer is to place wool on bear head and start jabbing your felting needle into it. That's it!

Then once you get the hang of that, you can pre-felt some shapes, sew them onto the head , then felt further from there.

If you go into the 'tips and tricks' section here, search for needle felting. You'll fine TONNES of info there.
