Care Bears: Bear Buddies

Care Bears: Bear Buddies is the newest DVD release with eight never-before-released episodes from the top-rated Saturday morning CBS TV series. While supplies last, the all–new release comes packaged with a lovable toy bear buddy making for an incredible value. These adorable toy bears come in 6 different color characters, but are available for a limited time only, so kids will be eager to search for their favorite color bears on store shelves – and collect them all!

Come journey with the Care Bears into Care-a-lot where the Care Bears learn about being true to themselves and each other. Watch as Share, Oopsy, Love-a-lot and the rest of the Care Bears embark on new adventures that focus on “friendship” from creating a rockin’ music band to trying to cheer up a sad friend. Care Bears: Bear Buddies teaches kids valuable lessons about being true to themselves and each other, understanding, and forgiveness – themes of emotional intelligence that help kids develop and are mom-friendly.

The all-new Care Bears television series airs Saturday mornings on CBS as a top 5 rated show on US network TV, and currently enjoys 95% awareness among moms of girls ages 2-5. A beloved brand since the 1980s, Care Bears continues to be one of the most recognizable and top preschool properties in existence (according to Lieberman Consumer Research January 2006).

Our Take:
My youngest loves the Care Bears and held onto her "squishy" Bear Buddy the whole time she watched the show. That bear is also fun enough to join in the bathtub, so it's a huge hit and added bonus to the already fabulous DVD! Now that she's in preschool, my daughter learns great tips for dealing with other kids in class who may be sad and need cheering up!
