Care Bears toys are snuggly bears with patches on their tummies, called belly badges. The originals were available in a series with names like Birthday Bear, Bedtime Bear, and others. Each came with a name tag and they have become valuable collector’s items over the years. They remain loved as both toys and to collect. Let your child experience owning and playing with Care Bear toys; there’s a cornucopia available. Here are just a few to choose from:
1. The Care Bear Cubs
The Care Bear Cubs: Tenderheart with Blankie and Teddy Bear is a darling Care Bears toy. This teddy bear-type toy is for children 3-12, but you never outgrow a Care Bear. Tenderheart is part of the collection of Cubs Care Bears toys, just like the other bears but younger. She has her own teddy bear and comes dressed in diapers with snuggly blanket. Her belly badge is a heart.
2. Care Bears 25th Anniversary Bear
Care Bears 25th Anniversary Bear with DVD set is a great choice in the Care Bears toys line. It is a celebration of the quarter-century since American Greetings developed this toy for children. The beautiful white plush bear has silver accents. Her belly badge is a rainbow. She has a heart button on the backside that assures you she is a genuine original Care Bear toy. She has a silver plated nose and hip heart, and beautiful Swarovski crystal eyes. She comes with a special edition lost episode DVD, Land Without Feelings; a half-hour television special first aired in 1983 and not broadcast since. The DVD shows a glimpse into the Care-a-lot world of Care Bears toys.
3. Funshine and Love-A-Lot Poseable Bears
If your child likes to carry a toy along when in the car, the Care Bears Cuties 2.5 inch Funshine and Love-A-Lot Poseable Bears set is a great solution. As cute and loveable as the larger bears, these little bears are great for collecting in smaller bedrooms or carrying around the town. There are other Care Bear Cuties toys available so you can provide your child a complete set or just select ones which especially appeal to your child. These bears, unlike the larger bears, can be posed and will hold that position until reposed.
4. Care Bears Glitter and Glow
Care Bears Glitter and Glow is another series of bear released to celebrate the 25th anniversary of Care Bears toys. When she is cuddled, she glows all over. Her belly badge lights up and twinkles day or night. Because this edition of Care Bear glows, she’s special fun for night but great for day play too. For children who are timid about darkness, this is the must-have Care Bear toy. There are a number of styles available in the Glitter and Glow series such as Oopsy, Cheer, Share and many more.
