At first I thought light, but no. Then the sun, but no. Then I thought it might be water, cos polar bears fur is actually clear and it'd work for the first few. But as you can see in the post a few above, the answer is clearly Time.

True it doesn't rain much in antarctica. But there are polar bears in f.i. svalbard, and it rains there sometimes. (it's not as far north as antarctica) So rain and water are both viable options Smile [:)]

The time has come,
winter is here
and those yellow bears disapear.

The time has past
as man looks back with a sigh
and a tear in his eye.

As time is held
boys cross their legs
but of course the toilet begs

As time marches on
Girls loose their blush
and swap a comb for their brush

As time passes
For those held high
their end is nigh

As time catches up
Everyone is equal
when we get to the final sequal

As time turns
Without it we have flour and water
With it we have breakfast for my daughter

As time revolves
How does one turn water and wine
into something so fine

As time runs out
The more in a minute you try and squeeze
the less you can do with ease.

As time ticks
All the time that has past
man cannot comprehand something so vast.

I think Its air

I turn polar bears white (cold air)
and I will make you cry. (cold air)
I make guys have to pee (cold air)
and girls comb their hair. (air)
I make celebrities look stupid (cold air)
and normal people look like celebrities. (air)
I turn pancakes brown (hot air)
and make your champane bubble. (air in the bubbles)
If you squeeze me, I'll pop. (air in like a balloon)
If you look at me, you'll pop. (im not sure about this one maybe your ears pop)
Can you guess the riddle?

I Agree

I would guess "Air" or Cold air

I turn polar bears white - hair is hollow full of air
and I will make you cry. -A cold wind can make you cry
I make guys have to pee - a cold breeze if you are exposed
and girls comb their hair. - wind will mess up hair
I make celebrities look stupid - same -wind will mess up hair
and normal people look like celebrities. - Sometimes wind will cause that "wind blown look"
I turn pancakes brown - turning brown when cooking is because of heat induced oxydation
and make your champane bubble. - CO2
If you sqeeze me, I'll pop. - air in bubble wrap
If you look at me, you'll pop. - this last one I'm not sure of. If you look into the wind do your eyes pop? Looking into the wind when trying to hit a baseball make you pop-up?

High altitude is low atmospheric pressure

Is no one listening. The answer IS no i cant. The whole point is children answer the question, adults assume its a deeper riddle with an answer. There isn't an answer to the first 10 lines. The only question is the last line.

The point was if it rained where the polar bears live, so if it's arctic or antarctic is sort of irrelevant here isn't it? But thanks for pointing it out.
