Like many other children of the 80’s, the Care Bears were a big part of my childhood. And now the Care Bears have been re-imagined for the next generation with their latest DVD, “Care Bears: Tell-Tale Tummies”. And three lucky Contest Corner readers will win a copy of this DVD, so read on!


My Take:

I’ve always loved the Care Bears, as evidenced by this snapshot from the mid-eighties. I still have my beloved Care Bear, and many fond childhood memories. Now that everything 80’s is cool again, people who grew up with the show are introducing it to their own children.

“Care Bears: Tell-Tale Tummies” is an 88-minute DVD containing 8 fun episodes. The animation style has been updated and modernized, and looks quite different from the original series. I honestly can’t remember much else about the old cartoon itself, so I’m not really sure how else this differs from the original, but the basic premise is the same. Each episode on this DVD centers around honesty, illustrating the importance of truthfulness through the various mis-adventures of the bears. For example, in the first episode one of the bears accidentally breaks a machine that Grumpy Bear is working on, and later fibs about it. Her conscious keeps bothering her in the form of her grumbling “Tell-Tale Tummy” until she fesses up, and realizes that everything is much better when you tell the truth. I really liked how the characters are well-rounded – even though Grumpy Bear has a grouchy personality, he’s still kind-hearted and quick to forgive the other bear for breaking his device after she apologizes for her mistake. The bears are compassionate and understanding of each other, which is another imporant lesson to be gleaned as well as the solid advice about integrity and honesty. All in all, I thought this was a cute show and brought back good memories of my own Care Bear-filled childhood.
