Holiday Gift Guide 2009: Care Bears: Bear Buddies DVD Review





The Care Bears have been a top toy since I was a child, so it was obvious that I’d have to include them in this gift guide. I think that people from my generation who are now parents are eager to share things like Care Bears with their own kids, since it brings back so many good memories. I know I would have been thrilled to receive this DVD for Christmas when I was little – well, if DVD players had existed then!

Care Bears: Bear Buddies follows the adventures of a new generation of Care Bears as they learn the true meaning of friendship. I’m still getting used to the new animation style – us old schoolers don’t like change – but the show is really cute. I appreciate how they try to make the characters well-rounded – they make a point of showing how everybody makes mistakes, and that we should try to be understanding of other people. The Care Bears discover that even the villain, Grizzle, has feelings too.

The DVD includes 8 fun episodes:

Belly Ball
All You Need Is…
Battle of the Band
Whose Friend Is Who
Present and Accounted For
Forget It
Gone
True Heart’s Big Trip

And what makes this ideal for gift-giving is that it also comes with a toy! Care Bears: Bear Buddies is packaged with a small soft-foam Care Bear figure, available in 6 different colors while supplies last.


Care Bears: Bear Buddies is available on Amazon for $13.49.

  1. I grew up loving Care Bears too, and love watching the new episodes with my son. It does take a little getting used to the changes, but it’s such a cute show!

  2. Hello there! This blog post could not be written much better!
    Going through this article reminds me of my previous roommate!
    He constantly kept preaching about this. I most certainly will forward this post
    to him. Fairly certain he will have a very good read.

    Thanks for sharing!
