I love it! I was the biggest ever Care Bear fan as a kid, my favourites were Tenderheart and Bedtime bear, because I had those but out of all the them it had to be Funshine bear, don’t know why she never worked her magic on Grumpy!

That’s hilarious! My oldest grandson has earned the title of our little Eeoyre. Seems like he’s always unhappy, things are always unfair or he’s always bored or not liking what the other people want to do. I really try to love him and sometimes he’s a really cute boy, but I just don’t know how to deal with all that gloom & doom. I have them for a whole week this summer – either we’ll be able to snap him out of it once he’s away from his overprotective Mom, or it will be a total disaster. Wish me luck!

This made me laugh out loud…..you are so clever. You really brought some serious issues to my attention, like why is Eeyore’s tail NAILED to his BUTT….that’s just unfortunate and wrong on so man levels…..

This was such a good post! I always thought I was weird because Tigger and Eyeore both were my favorite cartoon characters. I guess they’re just meant to show that it’s okay to show you’re upset from time to time. Now the cartoon character that drives me crazy is Deigo. I mean what type of parents send their kid out into the jungle to rescue wild animals, with a baby jaguar as a pet?!

I never got into Care Bears, just like I never got into the Smurfs either (something about too cute cartoons that wigs me out).

Don’t know if you ever read the Tau of Pooh or the Te of Piglet, but one of them talks about the Eeyore Effect. Anybody who walks around thinking that the world is all gloom and doom is just like Eeyore.

I just hope that grumpy gets the hint,

I’m late. I’m slow. And I am a slow learner and posted about parenting. I just didn’t know I had learned so much!

Snowstorms of the year are EXCITING! Have a delightful time with that. ;)

I think Lolli mentioned earlier that possibly a reason to have a an angry or sad character is to make them relate-able. I think that makes sense. Considering my kids are “grumpy” 90 percent of the time. ;)
